To Replace Reciver/Dryer/Desicant Bag
1. Remove the condenser
2. Remove the cap (A) from the bottom of the condenser, then remove the O-ring (B), the filter (C) and the desiccant (D).
3. Install the desiccant in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
Replace the O-ring with new ones, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil (KEIHIN SP-10) before installing them.
Be sure to use the right O-ring for HFC-134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.

Can't find anything on expansion valve or orifice. Don't know what they are using. HTH
