Part Numbers for correct gaskets/orifice tube?

Hey guys,

I'm looking to have my A/C system recharged but I need to know which gaskets and orifice tube to buy? I know I've read about the "green" gaskets and the blue ford orifice tube?

I will also be buying a new compressor because mine is starting to squeak really bad.

Car has been retrofitted with a serpentine belt system out of an 88 T/A which included the AC compressor. Otherwise everything else is stock for an 84 T/A.

My A/C worked fine until I shipped the car over here to the UK and now it will run cold for a bit, then blow hot which to me says my system is low/leaking.


I need to know exact p/n because I'm here in England and need to order them online. No one carries that stuff on the shelf over here so I don't want to have to order/return things if I order them wrong. Thanks for your help!
