ski.dive Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Since the Hydac accumulator is a little bigger in volume, Should we add a little extra brake fluid to the reservoir to compensate? Maybe we can get an extra pump or 2 from the brake pedal before the pump comes on, with a little extra brake fluid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2seater Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 ...Run the brake fluid check and add if necessary. What he said :) The amount in the reservoir has no effect on the reserve in the accumulator. I have a Hydac and when in good shape, it drops the fluid just a little over 5/8". Little different than a standard ball at half charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
