It isn't that terrible a job. The big thing is not to twist the metal
lines. You do that and you'll wish you had someone else do the job
instead! The little rubber hose comes off easily. The 4 screws holding
the accumulater usually come out easy. The one hard fitting is the
rigid one. After that you pull the acumulater out and loosen the other
fitting. Be careful not to get gas in your face, eyes, mouth. I
recomend after a short time of driving you should replace the fuel
filter, I have seen chunks of the rubber diaghram coming out of the
lines after removing the acumulater so you can assume they are in the
filter too. Having small hands does make the job easier as do the
proper wrenches. A lift is a lot nicer than lying on your back on a
creeper too! The materiel I usually find wrapped around the acumulater
is a strip of rubber. If it is in bad shape just cut a strip out of an
old inner tube.
