I filled it up with petrol & took it for a drive down the dual carriageway to see if it would clear but it didn't. Seems to get louder when I go around roundabouts & almost disappears when I turn left. I can't work out why it's doing it & the car itself seems to be driving perfectly, infact I would say it seems alot more responsive.
Typically.. when you change something then have any issues.. you go back to what you did. No way I would run anything short of "forum recommended" (needswings) filter and/regulator. We had a girl a while back traveling and had changed with a parts store brand.. car started having issues starting up on her trip and that was the cause.
