Where is the orifice tube on a 1989 Mercury Tracer?

The orifice tube on a 1989 Mercury Tracer is located in the air conditioning system, specifically within the refrigerant line between the evaporator and the condenser. To access it, you'll typically need to remove the refrigerant lines and the cover on the accumulator. It's important to ensure the A/C system is properly discharged before attempting to locate or replace the orifice tube.
