Go to a hardware store, or Sears, or sum such place and get a couple of thread pitch gauges -- one SAE and one metric. Cost a dollar or two each, and then you can always find out what pitch nut or bo

One thing I haven't seen anyone else mention yet is snow in the fresh air intake. I'm throwing this out because you didn't mention where you live, if you have snow, or if this occurs all the time. So

With OR without the check valves you mention, the system will still work just as you described, as long as the pressure cut in points are different. See Eric Murray's post. He described it perfectly.
