03 U320 accumulator [water] tank location

Having some intermittent flow and pump pulsating issues. Done the vinegar flush and blown out some sediment.

I don't see an accumulator tank so it's either hiding from me or not equipped with one.

Can anyone show me the location on your 03 U320 ?

Thanks

I'm not aware of any 2003's that have a water pressure tank.

2003 did use an AquaJet (now Remco) water pump, which is a variable speed pump.  You wouldn't normally have a pressure tank with that model pump.

Sounds like someone replaced the OEM one, as the AquaJet was standard during build. 

Which Shurflo is it?

I added an expansion tank because I hated that variable flow pump without one.  There is a post on here somewhere about that.  I will look for it.
