SBC BRAKE ACCUMULATOR NITROGEN GAS RECHARGING

just contacted a guy who recharges range rover abs accumulators which is similar to ours. He is willing to try and recharge the sbc accumulator just needs a core accumulator to test. So anyone out there with used or non working accumulator contact me so we can see if these accumulators can be recharged. the process involves taping a valve to the top of accumulator then regassing the bladder with nitrogen to the proper level of 68 bars. the would make regassing accumulator easier in the future since valve is installed on top.

So is a little bit of pressure used up every time you hit the brakes, so that it needs recharging, or does it leak out over time? Not sure what that thing even does.
