I just spent $ 785 to repair AC on 2005 PT Convertable with Turbo...it is an orifice system. Reason for AC failure was failed motor mounts and the engine torque pulled on the AC hoses until they failed and leaked suddenly.

A '99 Olds Delta 88 doesn't use an orifice tube system for the air conditioning it uses a thermal expansion valve. The location is under the passenger side dash in the heater/evaporator box. Unfortunately, you have to remove the dash to replace it as well as discharge the a/c system.

Air conditioning leak?

You need to have a system performance test performed on the vehicle. If it turns out to be a leak, and the system needs to be opened up in order for parts to be replaced, you'll also have to replace either the receiver-drier or the accumulator (which one you'll have depends on whether or not you have a fixed orifice tube system or a thermal expansion valve system).
