Hi fellas, could do with a bit of tech knowledge, went to a job today , boiler leaking water , found expansion vessel had blown and rusted round seam .Took boiler off wall and removed vessel. Found it had two ports on it ,both 3/4 . Tried to get through to Baxi tech help to no avail. Capped off pipes and fitted a remote new vessel to return pipework. Boiler fine but cuts out when dhw on , should i have or can i put a link in where original vessel was or can i only fit manufactures vessel? Many thanks in advance and hope this makes sense, would have left vessel in ,but was leaking like a sieve.
