I'm confused. If you have a bad accumulator, why not replace the
accumulator? I just replaced mine last week, cost me $100 and an hour
of my time. Cold start problem is gone now. What's with these hacks? I
could understand if you were looking at a $500 part, but a fuel
accumulator is a cheap and simple matter. Why not just fix it right in
the first place?
