Default Check Valve Needed... Where Would I Get On?
Ok, so I installed my catch can this weekend, and I need to install a 1/2 inch check valve in between the can and my throttle body. Where would I be able to find one?

What kind of check valve would I need for this setup? I am using high-temperature hose.

Look at the spring loaded ones. May be overkill but it works, and you'll just need to buy male or female ends to barb ends (depending on how you want your set up to be).

I got one of those for my brake booster and it looks and works great. Its spring loaded and opens under 1/4 psi.
