This weekend I plan to change the orifice tube (to a VOV) and accumulator on the 93 960.

The accumulator, VOV and o-rings have arrived. On the replacement accumulator, there is a Schraeder(?) valve where the pressure switch is on the installed accumulator.

Any tips on (1)getting the switch off the old one- it looks delicate and (2) fitting it to the new one?

I looked at the Sanden site-it describes a little dipstick for checking oil level in the compressor-any thoughts on that?

Thanks again,

Dan

To replace the switch: unscrew the old one, using a wrench on the flats. Screw on the new one, similarly, but not too tight; it's sealed with an o-ring.
No sweat.
