Can someone help me locate......

Can someone please help me locate the orifice tube in an 86 T/A?
My neighbor said that it "could" be in that line that runs under the accumulator bottle. Any thoughts on the subject?

Thanx,

it should be at one of the screw connections in the a/c lines, possibly near the evaporator, it is a little plastic orifice/screen that pulls out of the line when you unscrew the line

On the 86 TA, It ended up being in the line that runs directly "under" the accumulator/drier bottle. At the firewall end of the line. (not the radiator end) Hope this helps someone out in the future.
