How to Properly Service and Replace an A/C Orifice Tube on Buick Regal?

The condenser tube needs removal as the first step when replacing the A/C Orifice Tube. An operator should use the Orifice Tube Remover (J 26549-E) to extract the A/C Orifice Tube. The porous plastic inlet filter of the A/C Orifice Tube must never receive cleaning with solvents or chemicals. The tube requires inspection for detectable plastic frame breakage and filter clarity. Replacement of either defect is necessary. The A/C Orifice Tube inlet filter may be reused after cleaning with low-pressure shop air yet discarding the O-ring seals. The installation process requires application of mineral base 525 viscosity refrigerant oil to the new O-ring seal. Reinstall the new O-ring seals whenever you decide to keep the use of the A/C Orifice Tube. Place the A/C Orifice Tube edge carefully upon the condenser tube while ensuring your hands avoid the inlet filter and push it until you achieve full seat. After repositioning the condenser tube conduct a leak test on component fittings through the Halogen Leak Detector (J 39400-A).
