Throttle body check valve

Which way is the green and black check valve supposed to face. The arrow is currently pointing to the left (rear or the car).

is this the one for the double throttle system? the arrow should be pointing away from the TB. Think about it, you only want it to see vacuum. Vacuum is a pulling force (away from something).

Flip it around. It should point away from the secondary throttle diaphram. Hook up a vacuum hand pump if you're unsure to be certain the diaphram reacts to vacuum.
