1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. To remove the accumulator you must first remove the pump assembly, as outlined later in this section.
3. Place the pump assembly in a vise and loosen the accumulator by turning it counter clockwise with an open-end wrench.

See Figure 2

5. To relieve the accumulator pressure, perform the following:
   1. Secure the accumulator in a vise.

See Figure 3
