Just bought a new nitro ball (brake bomb, acumulator...) after reading the instructions, Do I realy need to remove the portion its attached to? It says I have to disconect brake lines and such. IF, this is the only proper way to do it, I'm ok with it then. I just want to know.
Thank You Bruce Y

Which portion? the valve on top of it, or something else? I just took out the bomb and the thing on top, and had to remove the vacuum pump to get it off. Then it said to make a tool...you dont need to do that, I just put it in a vice and squeezed, and turned (it helps with something rubber to grip it with {craftsman strap wrench for instance...})
