Hello, I am trying to locate the A/C orifice tube. Does anyone know the location of the orifice tube?

if you have one it will be where high pressure line enters evaporator there is normally a crimp in tube so it will not go backwards.if it is auto temperature control you do not have one you have an expansion valve which takes the place of the orifice. there is also one in manual system so you do not have one. Picture shows what it looks like.
