    Default Orifice Tube

    I am chaning my A/C compressor this weekend and I guess I need to change this as well. The accumulator looks simple enough, but can some one send me a pic for what the fitting would look like for the orifice tube in a later year grand prix. I have an 03, so obviously that would be preffered.

    I dont have a picture of it, but the orifice tube is right around where the brake booster is, down below it and is not particularly easy to get to. You'll know you found it when you see a section that is bulged a little and I think it even comes apart there.

    Thanks I took a look last night and that looks fun. It does look that I can disconnect the line at the fire wall and hopefully I can find any other clips so I can loosen the line enough to get to it. I just wonder if that line goes directly to the accumulator or the compressor
