Here's the first attempt at plumbing the tee and check valve for the purge valve
return line. If you're not already familiar with the Airflow Performance purge valve
setup, it's a valve just before the flow divider on the engine that diverts fuel back
to one of the tanks. Basically it allows you to get fresh (cold) fuel in the lines
all the way up to the engine to prevent vapor-lock problems on hot starts. In my case,
I'm going to plumb the fuel lines such that I'll switch to the left tank when purging,
and the return fuel will go into the right tank. This means I need a tee in the line
between the right tank and the fuel selector valve for the purged fuel to return. I
also decided to put in a check valve. That way, if the purge line became broken forward
of the firewall, it wouldn't just empty the right tank out, possibly causing a fire, or
at the very least a huge mess.
