430 430 F1 Accumulator

Mike

I have helped and guided at least half of dozen people just this year on accumulator replacement.. all without getting air in system

I sent you a PM with my number so we can discuss

The hardest part is removing the accumulator..some are in very very tight .. success can be had with a 3 prong universal oil filter wrench (one with longer prongs)

Removing the relay is right ..you can release pressure with pressure relieve screw in power unit

My technic involves adding a few drops of fluid to neck of power unit , flushing air using the relieve valve a few times before trying to shift or start car ..

I'm just dropping in to publicly say that we are all lucky for members like flash32. He doesn't get enough credit for all the help he provides to the diy'rs on this forum (obviously with nothing expected in return). Appreciate you man!

I would love a copy as well please

 

Mine finally came in this week. Need to make some time for a call with you Dominick. Although, my car is scheduled to go into the shop next week for the O2/Misfire stuff. I'm debating on whether to let them handling it as I'm worried about getting the bleeding part right. Don't need to create any new headaches to the currents ones!

 

So you ordered the one with the three metal prongs that was recommended from Amazon? I was debating on purchasing it.

 

If anyone feels uncomfortable since given instructions are pretty crude please do not hesitate to call me .. it will take 5 10 mins ..i rather take the time to talk than you have any issues

How often do you need to change the accumulator ? Mine has a new pump, but not seeing in history a new accumulator.

 

12-15 years or 25k -30k .. just based on what I am seeing
Hard to pinpoint - cause it probably is affected by heat and cycles which is hard to put a mileage to

 

Very nice! My client is based out of Houston. Back when I was based in Houston and worked overseas I'd fly back and forth from Algeria via either LON or CDG. Small world in this industry! I'm in Baton Rouge for the next couple of months, but you'll have to let me know if you're ever back in the area.

 

Hello
Would it be possible for you to send me the instructions as well?
Thank you
