[DML] Re: Continued: Fuel accumulator Test



That is no way to test the check valve. Air will not seal the valve.
Do the test on the acumulater. If it doesn't have a blown diaphram
then I would suspect the check valve. The other 3rd possability is a
sticking pressure regulater on the fuel distributer but that is much
less likely.
