Default Under bonnet fuel swirl pot

Afternoon guys,

I’m hoping someone may be able to point me in the right direction

I need to fit a swirl pot as my car suffers quite badly with fuel surge round right hand corners when it’s anywhere near 1/2 tank or under.

I’ve seen somewhere before a swirl pot which fits in place of where the windscreen washer tank is that also incorporates a fitting to which an 044 or similar pump can be fitted.

Does anyone have any idea of where I can pick one up from at all please?

Many thanks,

Gaz.

I have one from torques, with an integrated 044.

im looking to get rid of mine, because of the pump noise. Genuine 044s are super noisy.

Hi mate, thanks for your reply

do you have any pics of your one at all and how much are you after for it?

yeah I know what you mean about the noise, I used to run 044 pumps on my old Cosworths, I’m not too bothered about the noise tbh, it’s not a car that’s used too often
