Is this something that affects our cars with S/C as well? I read about this on a few mustang sites. It caused a hesitation or bog type affect when switching gears. Here is a pic of the PPRV inline with your fuel pump. The PPRV is the white valve connected inline with the hose.

I put in two of them, one for each pump.

You added another while everyone else is taking them out. I read that when removed it would make the car a tad bit harder to start like you would have to turn the key to on to prime the fuel tank then start it it get it to fire right up.

Just kidding.

I think it is more of a problem on manual cars when you are off and on the gas during a shift. I don't know what they look like inside but I do think it is some kind of restriction. If you want to keep it, I like Brian's idea of having 2 so its less of a restriction to 2 pumps. It does crank a little longer without it. You want to crank the car while the pump is priming.

Have any of these around to add to mine when you do my swap?
