(score: 1): Author: Larry Young <cartravel@pobox.com>; Date: Sun, 28 Jul 2013 16:31:09 -0500; Actually, the spec pressure is 350 for a large accumulator type (pre TR4A) and 450 for the later ones with a small accumulator. Racers prefer the large accumulator and often go to higher pressure for; /html/fot/2013-07/msg00223.html (12,311 bytes)

On the pressure stroke, the ball lifts and allows oil into the accumulator; then when the pump piston returns, the ball seats an; /html/fot/2013-07/msg00227.html (8,994 bytes)

I found out the hard way. The pressure on the bench and in the car looked fine at lower rpm. But the spring was re; /html/fot/2013-07/msg00228.html (9,092 bytes)
