OK, I'll try again. Thank you for your replies! Attempting to answer in order. Yes, when I start it up cold, the car starts great and runs perfectly. As long as I don't turn it off, it runs without a hitch. I have had the car for about a year. I noticed it was hard to start after warmed up, but it always did start. It wasn't until it left me sitting for half an hour, after a five minute stop for pizza and a six pack , that I started researching my problem. I have already changed the accumulator, tried to pick low lying fruit, and when that didn't work I ran a pressure test and have the results you see. As to the residual pressures, that's where I'm confused. Some threads have said that as long as you have 22psi, or about 1.5 bar, which I have for a full thirty minutes then you are ok. Other threads suggest you need more residual pressure than this. Confused. Also, I was asked if the WUR had attained its' highest reading after plugging back up. I wondered about this also, so ran the test again. After a minute and a half it reads 2.8 and after four minutes it still reads 2.8 and doesn't go any higher. Also, that is the reading with the vacuum line attached.
