Brake Booster Accumulator: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 GMC Safari and 2002 Chevrolet Astro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
The accumulator contains compressed gas. Always use proper tools and follow recommended procedures or personal injury may result. Do not apply heat to accumulator. Do not attempt to repair an inoperative accumulator. Always replace an inoperative accumulator with a new one. Dispose of an inoperative accumulator by drilling a 1/16" (1.5 mm) diameter hole through the end of the accumulator can, opposite the O-ring.
CAUTION:
Push rod removal is not recommended. Improper staking of the push rod to the Hydroboost reaction piston can result in a loss of brakes. If rod or seals require service, entire unit must be replaced.
