Thread: Air Conditioner issue: Evaporator Tube Assembly needs to be replaced.

The high-pressure valve on the air conditioner of my 01 Grand Prix started leaking and needs to be replaced. Unfortunately the Schrader valve is not replaceable on the high-pressure side. The entire Evaporator Tube Assembly must be replaced. I got the part (Amazon) and started to disassemble but can't seem to figure out how to pull it out without pulling the engine first. There's a coupling that is located under the break booster but I can't get any tool I own on it to take it apart. Has anyone ever tackled this job before? Need help.

Thanks.

Thanks. I found a thread for replacing the orifice tube and saw the pictures you posted for that. For my specific situation, I also had to remove the throttle body. I did the L36 to L26 mod back at the first of the year and the TB was in the way. I worked the tube as far forward as I could and was able to finally get the d**n thing apart and out. Putting the new one in was much worse. Not a job I'd ever want to do again. Sorry, but I didn't take pictures this time.
