Depends entirely upon the valve design and how it has failed. I would guess that it needs either simple cleaning/descaling or replacing, not repair.

What causes air to get into your well water if a check valve is working as it should?
If you have a union in the suction piping as many well systems do it may be the culprit. some times tightening the union will fix the problem.Another place air can enter is through the pump seal,if it is worn it may allow air to be pulled into the pump when it is running. replacing the seal can sometimes fix the problem. If you are losing the prime on your well system the problem is between the check valve and the well,if not the problem is between the check valve and the pump.

What causes well water to stop running?
On well water, there is sometimes a reservoir that needs to refill. So if water stopped coming out of your tap, normally you just have to wait till it refills. IF YOUR PUMP IS RUNNING & NO WATER YOU COULD HAVE A LEAK IN LINE FROM WELL TO PUMP.THE PUMP SHOULD PUMP UP PRESSURE & THEN LEAK BACK DOWN IN PRESSURE. I HAD THE VALVE GO BAD AT THE END OF LINE IN WELL & INSTEAD OF PULLING LINE FROM WELL, I INSTALLED A VALVE AT PUMP THAT LEAVES WATER FLOW FROM THE WELL, BUT DOES NOT ALLOW WATER TO LEAK BACK TO WELL. A SIMPLE FIX. FIRST, DID YOU TRY PRIMING THE PUMP BY FILLING WATER PUMP THROUGH THE PLUG ON THE PUMP & 2ND. ARE YOU SURE THE WELL IS NOT DRY. IF YOU PRIME THE PUMP WITH WATER & IT PUMPS NOW THE WELL WATER IS OK,BUT IF IT LEAKS DOWN & LOSES THE PRIME, THE FIX ABOVE WILL REMEDY THE PROBLEM.

Deep well submersible pump low pressure?
The wording of this question assumes the low pressure is not associated with a tank problem, or a control box problem. A few problems can cause low pressure from a submersible pump. The commonest that I've seen is a split in the pipe down the well, or a failed check valve immediately above the pump. ( all sub-pumps have a check valve to prevent 'run back' -these eventually corrode if cheaper types are used ) To fix this, it's necessary to pull up the pump and pipe and physically inspect the pipe, then cut out the split section or check valve and replace it with new parts. -The third, less common problem is the rotor vanes in the 'wet' side of the pump can simply become so eroded and worn that they will no longer pump at high pressure. The fourth, of course is motor failure and this can be determined with an ammeter at the surface. One other and very unusual problem is the sub-pump 'locking up' with silt. -I would rate this as less than 1 % of pump problems - this too can be detected from the surface with an ammeter.

How do you fix an oil pump pressure relief valve problem on a 1996 Ford Mustang 3.8 V6?
The oil pump on that engine is pretty easy to access and replace, since it's right there on the timing cover. I believe I wouldn't try to mess with replacing just the pressure valve, but I would replace the whole oil pump, pressure valve and all.
