Ok. Here we go again. Last summer my ac wasn't blowing as cold as I figured it should. It is still using the R12 and I had some. Tried adding it, but the system wouldn't take it. So, I just let it go. This year, I have several cans of R12 and also several cans of oil, if needed. I would like for my ac to blow cold. From my reading , I figure the orifice tube is likely clogged up and needs changed. I'm confident that everything on this system is original. The car was owned by a little old lady from the time it was new, till she went into the nursing home. Some other yahoo owned it for about six months before I bought it, and he for sure didn't do anything to it. Anyway, I figure to replace the orifice tube and was wondering should I replace the accumulator too? Is there anything else to be done while I'm at it. What I'm looking at doing , is having someone remove the old refrigerant, I'll do what repairs/changes I'm going to do, then I figure on putting a vacuuming and recharging the system myself. Any advice and guidance is much appreciated.
