Default 93 SEL ACCUMULATORS

To replace the accumulators at the rear shocksappears fairly easy, but how do you bleed the system when you have the new ones installed?

Default RE: 93 SEL ACCUMULATORS

I have found that the accumaltors are a bit of a pain to replace because they are hard to get to; left rear requires dropping the exhaust and right rear connections are on top of the accumulator and tough to turn. tubing connections are tight and very easy to round off the soft metal wrench fittings. Some say the system bleeds itself, but I have that is not true. Requires repeated bleeding at the self leveling valve. I use www.alldata.com for instructions. I can send to you if you IM with email.

They do bleed but it takes time, put some heavy friends in the trunk and let it cycle. I have heard that works!
