The ones in my 9K are fine, but when they died in my 84 C900 I just got some vacuum hose connectors at Advanced Auto parts and used them instead. Everything works fine 1 year later. Not sure what the check valve is really supposed to do, other than supposdly keep fluid ready to squirt. But on the 84 it doesn't seem to be an issue. However, I think I only replaced one , so maybe the other is still keeping fluid in the hose. It works, so I never investigated.
