Bob,
I don't have the diagram you want, but do suggest that you close the fuel valve 
from the header tank to the carbureator and that will tell if the fuel is 
returning through the fuel pump.  If it is, the fuel pump has a problem.  The 
valves in the fuel pump are not sealing.

Does anyone out there have a good copy of the Alon A2 fuel system piping layout 
that is a little more understandable then the one in the owners manual, It is a 
little confusing and unclear exactly where some of the lines go.   My problem 
is that all the fuel in the header tank is draining back into the wingtanks 
over an extended  period of time.   The plane has an electric fuel pump rather 
then an engine driven pump.  It looks like the only route the fuel could follow 
to drain the header tank is back through the pump.  Is there a check valve 
anywhere in the system to prevent fuel back flow to the wing tanks.  There is 
no standpipe in the header tank.  The return line is "T" ed off the back  of 
the header tank.  Any input would be appreciate
