Default Replace the oriface tube or expansion valve

767 Jockey Doug if you stayed here, I could have helped you. Any way. This is very important, There is either and expansion valve or oriface tube, If the compressor is broken or coming apart internally it need to be replaced.
Before you get crazy. Go and have someone do an ac service on the system. The compressor may just be low of pag oil. Is the clutch on the front of the compressor looks wierd in color. The compressor may be fine and the clutch is breaking. You have the rest of the info you need. Replace the parts and go and have the system vacuum and recharged. Have them sweep for leaks also. You might want to look for a place selling a B&G a/c recharge kit. Comes with oil and a freon booster. Rick L
