Its job is to prevent fuel from draining back to the tank when the engine is shut off, which keeps the fuel pump primed for faster restarts and protects it from dry starts. Over time, a failing check valve can cause extended cranking or hard starting, and this part is a direct replacement to restore proper fuel system pressure. Note that Series 60 fuel pumps used different check-valve configurations, so it's important to match your existing valve's dimensions and part number before ordering.
