I have 1998 gtp.. could someone tell me where to find the orifice tube. And what's the best way to replace it. Please help!!!
 


It's located behind the brake booster. Right hand side of the engine bay when looking from the front of the car, back against the firewall.

Take a look at post #7 from that link, by BillBoost, that's how I plan on doing mine. Just be careful with the lines.

I'm assuming that you're replacing that, the evap, and possibly the compressor? Get an A/C o-ring kit and replace every seal you run into along the way to save yourself the headache. And after it's all together, get it charged properly, as in pull a vacuum on the system, and if it holds, charge with the correct amount of freeon and oil.
