Yes only the orifice tube can be replaced. Make sure you get the right color(orange).

Since the system will be open why not replace all the O-rings?

If it's apart you should service anything that you can. Took us a few attempts to finally run down all the bad parts. Slow A/C leaks are a pain to fix.

Agree, accumulator bottom failed, plan is to replace accumulator with an aluminum one, replace all "O" rings Install new orifice, add 2 oz. of oil and some dye, evacuate & charge after I uncover from winter storage. priced at local NAPA today around $70.00.
Thanks guys
