Question about dual function reservoir

I removed my dfr and bench tested it. When I apply pressure to one of the supply lines I get a little pressure out of the other line. Which is why I believe the rear tank is filling up the front. I was wondering if I could put a check valve in the lines before the reservoir to fix the problem.

I am going to have to put this one back on for a while at least so a new filter wouldn't hurt anything.
