Accusump and chain tensioners

[JFP in PA]

We like to use and electrically controlled solenoid valve on the Accusump, which will accomplish the same goal automatically when you use your ignition switch. Just removes one more variable…………

I stopped using the electric solenoids years ago. They open too slowly (you can see it in data) The Accusump is already slow to respond, adding an electric solenoid to the equation slows it down even more!!

and yes.. I have the latest solenoid/valve on my desk.. still too slow

I'm not convinced it helps save these M96.M97 engines. I have plenty of blown up engines that I know for a fact had Accusumps on them.

Where it helps? Banked ovals like CA. Speedway/Daytona/Homestead, places where the car is in the banking for extended periods of time.
