I didn't realize there was a needle valve in the incoming line. Yes, is the answer.
If you use an Israeli drip irrigation nozzle (a pressure limiting device with no moving parts) it will allow a certain forward flow (usually adjustable) but create a very high resistance to reverse flow based on sharp corners impeding the flow. This has the effect of being a leaky non-return valve. It might work better than a jet.
