Where's the air conditioning orifice tube on a 95 Chevy G20 Conversion? Need to change it out. Can't find a diagram or youtube. Thanks Lee

It's located in the liquid line in the last connection before the evaporator. The line comes up into the engine compartment there on the left before turning back down to enter the evaporator coil. Lee you'll need a tool to separate that o-ring connector but it's easy to get at.

Seen many people twist evaporator core loosening the wrong nut.lol makes it hard to put in the orifice tube. I just replaced everything on the AstroCreep two weeks ago, it looks like a turd but it now blows ice cubes🤣


When in doubt..get the sawzall out..

Thanks CatFish! You were right on! Orifice tube was right where you said. Couldn't find that info anywhere on the internet or Chiltons or Haynes Books. Wasn't pretty though.....Orifice was packed full of stuff you never want to see in an engine or bearings:( Just replaced the compressor; figured I'd do the other easy components too. Off to the shop to be vacuum pumped and evacuated; hope that helps! Thanks again.
