<VV> Things that make you go Hmmmm.

I was cruising down the interstate Friday afternoon when all of a sudden it  
sounded like I was out of gas. I heard the flat sounding engine. Then it 
started  running again. I said to myself I had better get off the highway. I got  1 
 mile to go to an exit. It ran fine. I started for home and went two  more 
miles and that was all she wrote. I got out and popped the air cleaner and  
pulled the throttle linkage and nothing came out. Hmmm, fuel pump. After calling  
the wife, getting the trailer and getting it home, I took apart the pump. One 
of  the check valves came out of the casting. All I need to do is to put it 
back in,  stake it and put it back together. It has been awhile since I had a 
pump apart.  As I remember, the check valves go in opposite directions. Can 
anyone confirm  this for me? The other side is still in place (it will also get 
staked), so  putting in this one should not be any problem. I just don't know 
which way to  put it in.
 
Thanks for the help.
