Working on a 2 evap system, the compressor failed completly internally, its almost black death as bad as it is, the condensor is packed full with debris, and no freonwill pass threw the system. i'll post a few pics of the orfice tube when I pulled it out, so if you see this in your future a/c repairs, besides pulling the usual components replace the condensor.

Looks like someone used pudding instead of oil. Even mine didn't look that bad after 12 years!

Hell there was so much trash in the system the condensor was Packed, couldn't even get 150 psi air to pass through it. but its cooling good now.
