i know there was a topic on this but i cant find it.
ecotec thingis work by agitating the air in the inlet manifold, IS this what fezzi swirl pots do?

if i were to put fezzi swirl pot on a 1.1i would it improve fuel consumption, acceleration at low rpm speeds!

Personally mate they are a load of sh*te speakin from personal experience i got one second hand for 15 quid and it made fcuk all difference to my 1.1cfi fiesta. Keep the money and spend it on something else, a nice new gearknob or something.

uhmm
i dont want to buy one, i want to know if a fezzi swirl pot does the same as a ecotec.

do u get them on xr2i's?

Swirl pots : These are used for the cooling system to help keep air locks from happening. The water is forced to circle on the inside wall of the swirl pot which will make any air bubbles leave the water.

It has nothing to do with disturbing air on the inlet manifold.

Ecoteks are a waste of money

what is the black cylinder thing, attached to the rocker cover pipes on cvh engines?

[Project]

An oil separator, which I often mistakenly call a swirl pot

The theory is the oil-vapour laden air blowing off the rocker cover is passed through this which separates the oil and water - the majority of the oil is then blown into the air pipe just after the air filter, and the majority of the air is sucked straight into the inlet manifold.

Better than having nothing there at all
