Usually though, it comes out very easily with a pair of needle nose pliers. There&rsquo;s also a special orifice tube removal tool that you can use to make the whole thing easier. If you can, try to use those instead of needle nose pliers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&rsquo;s an important tip: if you&rsquo;re dealing with a clogged orifice tube, then you&rsquo;ll want to flush your entire A\/C system with a specialized cleaner. Even if you replace the orifice tube, it&rsquo;ll most likely end up clogged again unless you get rid of whatever&rsquo;s causing the blockage in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Orifice Tube Installation Directions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Installing the New Orifice Tube<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The process varies depending on the vehicle model and its orifice tube design. Recall how you removed the old tube. Take note that the orifice&rsquo;s tube orientation is important to ensure it can separate the high and low-pressure parts of your A\/C system. Make sure that you replicate the original orientation during the installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Installing the New Seal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Install a new seal over the tube before connecting the orifice tube to the couplings that hold the orifice tube. If you&rsquo;re installing a new orifice tube, it&rsquo;ll likely come with new seals. Ensure they&rsquo;re properly installed in the middle of the tube. If not, just push the seal into the appropriate notches in the middle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before connecting the orifice tube to the coupling, apply some refrigerant oil. Once the tube is in the couplings, you can reconnect the A\/C lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recharge Your A\/C System<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you&rsquo;ve sealed the A\/C lines, you can proceed to recharge your A\/C system with refrigerant. You&rsquo;ll need a technician with the appropriate tools for this.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 3<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>Q: Where Is the Orifice Tube Typically Located?
