RE: [DML] Orifice Tube

["Dave Sontos" <dsontos@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I performed the same trick with the drill on another DeLorean and we used a
orifice tube repair part. You have to cut off the section with the hole in
it and apply this new part that has a compression fitting on the end. Seems
to be be still working.

Price around $15.00, still a lot cheaper and faster than ripping out the
entire evaporator

I'll reply to my own message. I ended up taking out the evaporator by 
the book, and removed center console, glove box, kneepad, etc. Took 
out the entire heater/AC box. What a bitch job that is! I hope I 
can remember and backtrack my steps to get it all back together again.
