Most orifice tubes are placed in the high pressure line to the evaporator at the fire wall connection. You will have to empty the freon from the system to replace the orifice tube which is not very expensive (the tube, that is).

If you mean the orifice tube, it is in the low pressure line. If there is a hex nut in the line, you can separate the two parts and remove the orifice tube. If there is no nut, just a crimp, the line must be cut and a repair kit installed to contain the new orifice tube.

How do you know if your orifice tube is in need of replacing?

If the low side has too much pressure and the system isn't cooling properly that would be one sign that the orifice is plugged up. Removing the orifice tube and inspecting it would be the best way. If the orifice tube is loaded with metal trash, the compressor is probably on its way out. Replace the compressor, accumulator and orifice now before the compressor fills the system with trash, this you don't want to happen.
