I put a check valve in parallel with the VW engine-driven fuel pump. The VW
fuel pump will not flow fuel if the engine is not running. The electric
backup fuel pump cannot push fuel through the VW fuel pump. So, had to put
the check valve in parallel with the VW fuel pump to get fuel to the carb
for starting.

Remove the check valve! I don’t have one on my fuel system, it will just
cause problems.

with regards to getting my plane started.
I now have the engine running on all 4 cylinders. - it does sound nice.
The caveat right now is that I am taking the fuel straight to the throttle
body.
Still having issues with the vacuum operated check valve.
Thanks
