A roll-over check valve in a fuel system is designed to prevent fuel spillage in the event of a vehicle rollover. It operates by using a ball or flap mechanism that seals off the fuel line when the vehicle is tilted beyond a certain angle. This action prevents fuel from flowing out of the tank and into the environment, thereby enhancing safety. Once the vehicle is upright again, the valve reopens, allowing normal fuel flow.

How diesel injection pumps spill valve work?
A diesel injection pump's spill valve regulates fuel flow by controlling the return of excess fuel back to the tank or low-pressure side of the system. When the engine is running, the pump pressurizes the fuel, and the spill valve opens to allow surplus fuel to bypass the injector when the desired pressure is reached. This prevents over-pressurization and ensures that only the necessary amount of fuel is injected into the combustion chamber. The valve's operation is typically influenced by engine load and speed, helping to maintain optimal performance and efficiency.
Why does the service engine light reappear approximately 24 hours after replacing the purge valve?
The canister itself probably needs to be replaced. The canister can become loaded with fuel over time, causing excessive fuel vapors to be sucked into the fuel delivery system.
1997 Pontiac sunfire 2.2 liter no spark no fuel turns over but wont start?
Without fuel and the lack of spark, you can crank the engine continuously for the next 5 years and it will never start. One needs to find out why there is no spark or fuel. Start with the fuel pump and check the fuse(s), and then check the operation of the fuel pump. Check the electrical system of the car - check fuses, check wiring.
