What kind of valve is in the accusump?  The newer electric ones seem 
to be restrictive.  The manual ball valve is NOT restrictive.  The 
old-style electric valves don't seem to be restrictive.  What Glen 
said about the check valve.  Do you have large ID lines from the 
accusump to the motor?  Look for restrictions...  Mine's plumbed into 
the oil cooler lines (with check valve), but it's better to be 
plumbed directly into a main oil gallery.
