I found that when the accumlators were shot, the car adjusted almost instantly when moving the level by hand. After replacing the accumulators the car still adjusted but at a slower rate.

What you can do is load the trunk with about 200 lbs of gear, start the car and watch a fixed point in the mirror. Bring the engine up to 1500 rpms or so and watch the car adjust against that fixed point you are watching.
