A recirculation check valve positioned between a fuel system filler tube and a fuel system recirculation line. The check valve includes a hollow cylindrical insert having a plurality of radially inwardly extending projections provided around an inner circumference of the hollow cylindrical insert that are separated by a plurality of gaps therebetween. A valve member provided between the hollow cylindrical insert and an outlet of a housing of the check valve that is configured to move between an open position where the valve member is seated against the plurality of radially inwardly extending projections and a closed position where the valve member is seated against a valve seat formed in a channel of the housing.

A valve assembly may include a Fill Limit Vent Valve (FLVV) for preventing overfilling of the fuel tank during a refueling event, the FLVV comprising a first vapor path and a first float for selectively opening and closing the first vapor path based on fuel level in the fuel tank. The valve assembly may include a Grade Vent Valve (GVV) for releasing pressure in the fuel tank, wherein the GVV has a housing with an interface end connected to the FLVV and a ventilation end that comprises a ball-type valve for opening and closing a second vapor path of the GVV. The valve assembly may include a canister enveloping at least the ventilation end of the housing of the GVV, wherein the ventilation end of the housing of the GVV comprises (a) an orifice coupled to the first vapor path of the FLVV, and (b) a head cage for confining movements of a ball of the ball-type valve. The head cage is defined by at least a plurality of walls comprising: a first curved wall with a first end terminating at the orifice for the first vapor path of the FLVV and a second end terminating at a first terminating location proximate to a side boundary of the ventilation end of the housing; and a second curved wall with a third end terminating at the orifice for the first vapor path of the FLVV and a fourth end terminating at a second terminating location proximate to the side boundary of the ventilation end of the housing.
