Thanks for the feedback. Glad it worked out. After doing the job, my son decided that, on our 81 CIS systems anyway, which I think are set up like yours with the pump and accumulator next to each other under the car, it would be much easier to release one more connection, the one about a foot in front of the pump, and bring the whole contraption up on the workbench and do the exchange standing up with good lighting, etc. He said it's only one more connection to loosen in order to do this. That's my plan when I do mine. Thanks for the tip about replacing the accumulator. I don't know what they cost, but if it's not too much, I'll do that too.
