Try bypassing it or put in a good one if you have it.
If I disconnect the nozzles from the tubing and run the pump, I get heavy duty flow from both lines....its just the nozzles that are clogged up. Saturday I will flush the tank and clean the nozzles out....hopefully that will solve it. I'll consider an inline filter at some point too. Thats a job for a warm day. I have no filter on my W126 though, and its been flowing just fine all 6 years I've had it.....do W126 nozzles fit on a W124?


Next time I make an order online I'll probably get a new check valve too. Or I'll be extra cheap and just put a T fitting in there.
