sflowleft.jpg '88-91 Single-Function Reservoir (SFR) Fuel Flow
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

Fuel flows in through the larger tank-side supply nipple from the in-tank pump to the inlet check valve, which allows it into the reservoir.  As the cup fills, fuel moves up the pickup tube & out the larger engine-side supply nipple.  Unused fuel enters the engine-side return nipple, bypasses the blocked-off check valve ('88 revision) and exits the tank-side return nipple.

The only fault that would cause a noticeable problem would be for the check valve to stick closed, blocking any fuel from entering the reservoir, but this isn't likely.  With the cup removed (have a replacement cup O-ring in-hand before attempting), a sharp pick can be used to pull the valve downward & open.  The valve cannot be removed from the reservoir body.

A reservoir marked "DO NOT REMOVE CUP" does not contain a filter.  For a replacement O-ring for the cup, buy a NAPA 3268, Fram CG3862, or equivalent filter.
