OK I have a bridgeported FC with FD inlet/igniters and a tonne of other goddies.. built by Hayward rotarys.. :cool
only issue is i got some new pipework through today.. and in attempting to shoehorn it all in.. have managed to snap the join on what i believe to be an expansion tank of some kind... :(:(:(:(

Questions:
A: Can i run without it???? If so where does that pipe go! or do i block it off.
B: If i CANT run without it.. does anyone have a spare I can buy and then collect/have delivered etc TONIGHT/TOMORROW..
C: is there any common work arounds etc?? replacement bits/upgrades etc???
its an air separator tank. there is a way of eliminating it but you need a 2nd gen filler...also youd need to consult your builder to check hes happy with elimination of the ast as i reckon he might not be. if youre super stuck, i have an ast up here in harrow you can have for some beer tokens ;) although its a hell of a drive!
harrow!??!? dude im in epsom (j8 m25), you might be a life saver!
(need to update my location lol)

ive got some sort of bracket that was used to mount it.. dyou still have my number...sod it... 07595918063 if you get stuck
dude if yo uhave msn add me on flikblade@gmail.com or email me a postcode to that same address...
ill see how far it is and if i can come over for it tonight in the sexy micra.. STOOPID rotaries!
