Washer non-return valve and source? 120-130

I am currently suffering from having the windshield washer fluid drain out of the fluid line and back into the reservoir during relatively short periods of non-use. This results in a 30-60 second delay before the washer pump primes itself and forces a sufficient amount of fluid to get a decent enough stream to clean my windshield. Once primed and flowing, it has a good, steady and reliable stream, so I don't think there are any issues with the pump.

I'm thinking the problem is a lack of a non-return valve in the fluid line. Is there a source for such a thing, such as a universal valve you can just add to the line?

Thanks,

Dennis
