In reply to a message from dickwroe sent Mon 27 Mar 2006:

it sounds like your accumulator is worn out. when you first turn on
the ign, how long does it take for the pump to stop? should take
about half a minute or a little more. then when it stopped, turn
off the key and start pumping the brake pedal vigorously, it should
take 38-44 pumps before you could feel that its getting rock hard,
if thats how it is the accumulator is ok, but if you pump it a few
times and the pedal goes hard, you need a new one pajtas–
