Val Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 If you need them charged, you're local bus depot is a good place to start, the old routemasters used the exact same accumulators. Unfortunately due to how busy it was in the garage, we couldn't drive the Saracen in, so we offered one of the technicians a crate of beer if he came to us with the intensifier, we hooked it up to the air compressor and charged up the accumulators to 550psi. Thankfully no leakages in ours *touch wood* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
