Have you checked the hoses to and from the Idle valve? Mine were split causing idle troubles. Checked the large rubber bellowes that connects the fuel distributor to the intake? Clamps tight? Does adjusting your idle screw make any difference? I would also check all your connections under the dash, all the flaps that direct air flow under there are vaccuum controlled. Make sure none have popped off. Don't think the check valve is the trouble unless its cracked and causing a vac leak. The idle is dependent on the amount of air bypassing the throttle body, so any unmetered/extra air is going to cause trouble. Good Luck///
