Title: Lubemizer leaking
Post by: Dan_Shade on January 08, 2020, 07:58:14 PM
I'm assuming that I have a bad check valve in the lubemizer tubing, because it constantly flows. 

I'm not sure how it is supposed to be plumbed up with the check valve direction. 

Does anyone have a diagram?

I replaced the check valves in mine. I don't recall the direction but I'll try and remember to look tomorrow if I get time.

There should be an arrow on them which is the direction of flow.

I'll just order both check valves

One of mine had a sticker showing direction, but it fell off. 

I guess the loop is to keep the pump from deadheading.
