[DML] Stuck in Omaha-Loud noise in Accumulator

I just pulled into Omaha and my car started making a loud humming noise
while stuck in traffic. The noise appears to be coming from the
accumulator - not the fuel pump.
The last few days the car has been running sluggish, about 70% of
normal power and has been harder to start first thing in the morning.
I'm wondering if these problems are related to the new hum/buzz.
Previously, when my D's have had an accumulator problem, the pressure
on the fuel system drops rapidly and is difficult to start after
sitting a few minutes. (I run with a pressure gage on the fuel system
all the time.) I have 40 psi 20 minutes after turning off the engine.
Thsi is my second D and was in storage (of the improper kind) before I
bought it and went thru the fuel system (pump, accumulator, filter,
CPR, fuel distrib, rremove & flush tank, etc.)
Could the fuel filter be plugged from crud that accumulated in the
lines and did not initially flush? Am I likely to make it 60 miles
home without a problem? Any ideas.
Thanks in advance, once again.
Woody
Am I stuck at my girlfriend's house for the weekend? he he
