The Accusump is a pressurised oil reservoir connected to the lubrication circuit. When pressure drops in corners, under braking or at start-up, its piston pushes oil back into the engine. The manual valve is opened by hand: before starting, to pre-oil the engine, and on track, so the accumulator covers pressure drops. Canton recommends it for racing because it releases the oil without restriction.

Fitting
  • The Accusump works in any orientation. If possible, keep the oil valve end slightly higher than the air end so bubbles purge.
  • Clamps go at the ends of the tube, never in the middle: a pinched tube makes the piston hang.
  • It connects on the pressure side, after the filter and cooler, close to the engine: with a tee on an external line, a sandwich plate under the filter or straight into an oil gallery.
  • Use Teflon tape on the NPT threads, not paste.
  • Keep it away from exhaust heat and stones thrown by the tyres.
  • On a total oil system failure it gives 15-60 seconds of oil, depending on engine and speed.
