I bought a Marlin swirl pot but I don't like the fact that it sets next to the greatest source of sparks- ie the battery! I am surprised that the SVA don't fail it to be honest - but they probably dont have a rule for that bit.... Also it's not really a swirl pot - its just a buffer tank.

The FSE swirl pot looks like a much more professional bit of kit with proper unions and it has a built in filter. The combined LP/HP return is recomended by FSE and I have seen it used succesfully on another BMW Marlin (at Stoneleigh).

If anyone wants a Marlin swirl pot I have one going cheap!!!
