Hi there. I usually lurk but here is some advice: The accumulator is only one of a series of devices that maintain rest pressure in the fuel system. Maintaining liquid fuel under pressure in the system raises the vapor pressure of the fuel and prevents common hot start problems. If you're forced to ventilate the engine bay to get a hot start after changing your accumulator you still have a problem either with rest pressure or an unrelated hot start issue. I suggest you measure the rest pressure to verify it remains within the specs and time noted in the manual. As long as rest pressure is maintained there is no typical heat soak condition that should cause fuel vaporization and prevent a hot start.
