I toasted the pump because I put the new SUPPLY check valve in place of the return. It's one way - all I had to do was blow in it to see, but never checked... So, because of that, fuel never cycled back to the tank and something bad happened. I'm assuming its the pump cuz I couldn't get it to run again. I tried to fix it in the lot by taking an new supply fitting and sawed off the check portion. I put this in place of the evil supply check valve (installed stupidly in the return fitting) and moved the supply check valve, appropriately to the suppy line. Whew. Car still didn't start (and should have since this is the proper set up).
This probably redundant...i don't recall what I wrote before.
I know this sucker inside and out now. So, in your situation, you are supposed to have a check valve on the supply line to maintain pressure (no leak down). My old non-check valve supply fitting looks just like the return one but without the check spring.
I abandoned the car at the dealer and bit it. I was gassy and had a meeting in 20 minutes. Good thing is that my meeting was a perf. review to discuss salary and I had a fresh bargaining chip :)
