Re: [DML] Orifice Tube

["sweetp01569" <paul.sweet@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Replying to an old post.  I, too had trouble with my orifice tube 
stuck in the pipe.  I drilled it out, but with it, a hole through 
through the avaporator tube as well!  I just ordered a new 
evaporator.  Can anyone piont me to some good step by step 
instructions for replacing the evaporator?  I got eight of the eleven 
casing screws out.  Any tips in dropping the evaporator out?

Thanks,
Paul
