The check valve is in the fuel pump, if it still drops pressure after a new pump you may have a leaky injector. What kind of fuel pump did you install? I recently replaced mine and had the same problem and ended up finding several very small holes in the teflon line the attaches the fuel pump to the metel lines that run out of the tank.
