Hi have a 72 145 (w/ carb conversion), Im getting vapor lock on hotter days during restarts. I end up mashing the gas pedal to the floor to restart.... Im told an inline check valve between the fuel filter & carb will prevent the new bad gas from evaporating causing a hot start situation on hot days. My question is: what is the best design, who sells the one we need? part number?

THX!
