Hydro-Boost Unit: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Mustang, 2003 Ford Mustang, and 2002 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: The power brake booster should not be carried by the accumulator, nor should it ever be dropped on the accumulator. Check the snap ring on the accumulator for correct seating before the power brake booster is used. The accumulator contains high-pressure nitrogen gas and can be dangerous if mishandled.
WARNING: If the accumulator is to be disposed of, it must not be exposed to excessive heat. Before discarding the accumulator, drill a 1/16" (1.6-mm) diameter hole in the end of the accumulator can to relieve the gas pressure. Always wear safety glasses when performing this operation.
