01 Sportsman 500 ho,the little one way check valve that hooks to the bottom of the drain hose on the bowl was sitting on top of the motor,what direction should it be hooked up?so air can go in or so fuel can flow out?If it was ass backwards what would happen?Thanx

It is an OVERFLOW. It lets fuel run OUT if the float valve sticks and overfills the bowl but keeps water and contaminates from coming in. If its turned the wrong way, it will not let fuel out when needed and fuel may leak into the air box and/or the engine crankcase....not good!
