I've had check valve failures but I don't remember if I've had one come out.
It seems like some fell apart.  I've never had one leak gas into the oil
(Yet) - at least not on a Corvair.  I'm sure most 'vair people know this but
you can prime a new pump and actually feel it fill up if you leave the set
bolt out and push on the pump several times to manually pump the fuel.
