I don't understand what you mean by "after the expansion valve" Is it just a description of where the part is on the system? I gave the readings for my high-side port and my low-side port, at idle and at 2k rpms. The rest is you teaching me, Sensei.


I don't know if the valve is the original or not. I know that I have a reman compressor because I saw the sticker this weekend when I was looking for a part number to do a worst case scenario estimate for my wife

looking again to try and tell you if it was original or not, I started the engine just for kicks and when I am closer to it I can hear a sort of squelching in that area... like water moving through a pipe I guess...
