[DML] Accumulator ? for Rob Grady

["dmc_5180" <dmc_5180@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rob,

I will change the the fuel filter again to see if that does the trick.

On another note : You said, my friends car is over-due for an accumulator change. You said, 
you know of few if any cars still running an original accumulator that are now 24 years old. 
Well, I have a question for you then. I use as my daily driver, an 86 AUDI COUPE GT with the 
very similar bosch K-jetronic injection system with an identical fuel accumulator. As near as I 
can tell its the original and I am the 2nd owner. The car has nearly 400,000 miles on it and if 
you look at the accumulator you would swear it would crumble in a pile of rust if you touched 
it. That is because its mounted just ahead of the right rear wheel where it is subject to a lot 
of salt used in the upper midwest. The car starts and runs dependably hot or cold.  I see 
delorean accumulators that appear to be new on the outside yet they go bad somewhat 
frequently.

What Gives?
