Claim:
A downhole tool having a throughbore for use in a tubular located in a wellbore, the downhole tool comprising: a sealing element configured to seal an annulus between the downhole tool and an inner wall or the tubular; a flow path formed in the downhole tool, wherein the flow path is configured to allow fluids in the annulus to flow past the sealing element when the sealing element is in a sealed position; a valve in fluid communication with the flow path and configured to allow the fluids to flow through the flow path in a first direction while preventing the fluids from flowing through the flow path in a second direction; a run-in flow path configured to allow the fluids to flow through the downhole tool and past the sealing element prior to sealing the sealing element; and a second valve configured to close the run-in flow path upon actuation of the sealing element.
