Op-- just to clarify, you tried to blow into the WW hose, not the check valve.

Good.. Then it's just a matter of finding the clog in the system. Most likely the factory filter in the WW tank.

You will. Boost was not consistent because, without the check valve, meth pressure wasn't consistent. That's function of the Procede's built-in failsafe.

Well if there's always an upside to things, then at least you got to see first hand that the failsafe is doing it's job




Oh...and this one's for not following directions
