I would start with the accumulator only, since it's so Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Time for True confessions...., Ted, Sat, 28 Jun 2003 12:31:12 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
dirt simple to replace compared to the whole pump/MC unit. You can always go in and do the pump unit later if it's not enough with accumulator.
But you are completly correct that the ABS pump unit will go up in smoke if the pump is allowed to run the whole time, had a 9000 in last week where that had happened and the unit was leaking brake fluid AND actually smoking.
When replacing accumulator, turn off ignition and pump brakepedal about 50 times to get as much pressure out as possible. With a bad accumulator you still gonna have fluid squirting out, so be careful. Use an Allen socket size 8mm (I think) and crack it open. After that it's just a matter of unscrewing the accumulator. But once again, be careful when the seal lets go and brakefluid starts to come out.
