Re: [DML] FUEL ACCUMULATOR INSTALLATION



Jason, 
I will take a stab at it, Personally, I don't replace the accumulator unless 
I can put the car on the rack. I don't want the problem of leverage or the 
right positioning. Plus I'm 220 LB's and 6 foot tall.
Then I made two wrenches to break the lines loose. The are extra long handle 
14mm and maybe 19mm. The original factory warranty manual shows that it's . 6 
hour. This is what Delorean Company as I understand it would be reimbursed 
the dealer to replace unit. The actual R & R shop manuals may show 1 hour. 
Drain the lines, prepare, find the right wrenches, tug on them a little to 
see if what they are using is good enough. I would explain to the mechanic to 
please be careful not to twist the upper connector. So, I wouldn't push them 
to hard on the time and if they said and hour. and everything went OK, then 
good.

<< Does any one have a step by step guide as to how to install the Fuel 
Accumulator? Any pictures? The reason is I will have to bring my D 
into a repair shop locally who would be billing me per hour and if I 
show them that this should not take longer than "1/2 hour" I have 
some recourse if they claim that it took them more time than this to 
do or screwed something up. Also I would like to advise them of all 
they need to know about the car, dangers, warnings etc.... before they 
start work on it. Thanks everyone!
