Not often. I only fit wmi with an in line solenoid as well as the check valve.

Yeah I think that will be a good upgrade.

^^^ As Alex said, an inline solenoid is a sensible option. I run both a check valve and a solenoid on my Devils Own setup.

If you need one, I actually have a spare brand new Devil's Own solenoid you can have for £35 posted. PM me if your interested mate.  :happy2:
