Was stumped on both the cracking pressure of this cute little fuel check valve
and what thread form was used in the female output side. Flow enters small male end.

Check valve details solved


Called AeroMotive - told 1.5 PSI opening threshold,
thread, O-Ring Boss, ORB-6 female or 6 hydraulic or 9/16"x18 UN
BTW only male ORB fittings are sold/available to public,
all the female ORB are found in special devices like valves/pumps.
Scooted to real hardware store to be given free a couple in a bin
to experiment with. $.060 for 2 oil rings, one a spare.

So now can mount valve, cut hoses carrying oil in/out engine > filter > frame
and move on to next midnight rocking chair mechanical work around.
