I thought I would share my idea concerning the inherent time lag using the Accusump with pressure switch operated solenoid valve.

Knowing that oil pressure dips occur when lateral Gs spike to approx. > 1G, what if I modified this setup to include an adjustable accelerometer switch circuit in parallel to the pressure switch circuit. The idea would be that one could adjust the switch threshold to 0.8 or 0.9 G to open the solenoid valve just a tad earlier than the pressure switch would. This would in effect open the valve slightly before the pressure drop occurs... and keep it open for a minimum amount of time. The goal would be to smooth out any large pressure dips even further.
