OK, Thanks for the confirmation. I saw the cross section drawing and I
thought that is the case. Gotta get this car banging on all 5 so I can go
drive it and clean it out. Hope the Techron works it's magic overnight.

What amazed me is how the emergency brake just plain came into adjustment.
The rear calipers must not have been seated. The brakes feel strong when the
pedal is at the top. Have to go get more Pentosin tomorrow and fill it all
the way back up. It sure dropped after I filled the car. The system must
hold near two cans. I guess that means the bomb is charged and working.
That's a good thing. I'll probably bleed the brakes all around again now
that everything has been worked in and the booster has clamped everything
down many times.

No. It's a pressure loaded accumulator. With no input pressure the back
pressure loaded diaphragm will completely exhaust the working side, no air
remaining.
