Do you have a hand pump or another way to generate a regulated pressure? I would be very interested to have you test your valve, and I will test mine and we can compare results. A new valve is going to cost a lot more than a check valve, and I hate to buy a new one only to find out that it leaks as well.
Eh, I would just get one from a junkyard. I had a few laying around after buying some long blocks for cheap but I just took a truckload of stuff I don't need to scrap otherwise I would send you one. When I get a chance possibly this weekend I'll test mine but I've never had a problem boosting up to 28psi long enough from 2nd gear to 5th so a decent amount of time.

I'm not saying anything different than anyone else: a properly functioning evap will not leak and it's not wise to leave something broken and put a band aid fix on it. If you want to call it scientific method you need a working valve as a control. You have no control proving the evap system works except for the bad valve in your system and the fact that another company sends a check valve. I never said the check valve won't keep pressure from entering that system. I said you should fix your problem first and if you want to run the check valve as more insurance then what's an extra couple of bucks. Just odd that momentum, pl, greddy, etc don't include anything in their kits if the evap system fails in factory working condition.
