| (...) Andrew, It is so interesting that you broached the topic of vaacume/pressure pressure at the same time as the hydraulic question. In many ways they are the same problem. Containment. With vaccume/pressure you need a switch with containable (...) (19 years ago, 21-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

To get an exhaust that doesn't leak away the whole pressure of the system, use a small cylinder or two that pushes against some rubber bands to open a valve: (URL) the pressure leaks away, the rubber bands overcome the reducing pressure in the (...)
