In Reply to: Needed: "Bomb" replacement instructions posted by Mike R on October 08, 2000 at 08:12:05:

Greetings

Finished replacing the "bomb" this weekend. Could not remove the old one while regulator was still installed in vehicle. Carefully followed the Bentley instructions and used a wood lined vise to hold the regulator and a nylon strap oil filter wrench to remove the old accumulator. Quite difficult to loosen, even with the strap. Cleaned everything well with "Simple Green", installed new accumulator following all torque specs and everything is great again!

Thanks to all who offered advise.
