I got a new ac compresser and condenser kit for dual air 97 Suburban. I found the original orifice tube in the split line by the battery box. It was very stuck and came apart rather than coming out. Took the line off too and then took out all the remains of what apppears to be what was once a white orifice tube. Then cleaned the line well several times and installed the new yellow orifice tube which had come packaged separately with the kit. Fit just fine.
However, when I was installing the new condenser I found it also had an orifice tube in it. The original condenser did not have one. So I removed that one from lower line of condenser figuring it must have been included for applications that have only front air. That new orifice tube is black plastic. IDK if the color matters, but figured it did not need 2 orifice tube at the front.
The kit also included a brass orifice valve for the rear unit. So the extra one I am assuming is just because they sell partial kits like this for single air applications.
Am I wrong?
