Ford Mustang (1999-2004) Service Manual: Evaporator Core Orifice
NOTE: The evaporator core orifice is an integral part of the condenser to evaporator line and should be installed as an assembly with the line.
NOTE: A new evaporator core orifice should be installed whenever a new A/C compressor is installed.
The evaporator core orifice has the following characteristics:
- It is located in the A/C condenser to evaporator line.
- It has filter screens located on the inlet and outlet ends of the tube body.
- The inlet filter screen acts as a strainer for the liquid refrigerant flowing through the evaporator core orifice.
- O-ring seals on the evaporator core orifice prevent the high-pressure liquid refrigerant from bypassing the evaporator core orifice.
- Adjustment or repair cannot be made to the evaporator core orifice assembly. A new evaporator core orifice must be installed as a unit.
Refrigerant Lines
The condenser to evaporator tube (19835) contains the high pressure liquid
refrigerant upstream of the
evaporator core orifice.
