Step 2. Check for inoperative fuel return line - check lift valve.
Make sure that the check valve is installed in the line correctly; the arrow
should be on top of the valve assembly or pointing upward. If the valve is
inoperative, replace with a new valve assembly. Refer to paragraph 3-70.
Step 3. Check for high fuel return temperature.
Check the engine fuel spill-back temperature. The return fuel temperature must
be less than 150F (65.5 C) or a loss in horsepower will occur. This condition
may
be corrected by installing larger fuel lines or using the fuel oil heat exchanger.
