This is great info- Thanks. To John's question, it's the AC evaporator
core... I recently changed the cancel cam in my steering column and had to
remove a lot, so I've had a lot of the parts out already but never the
entire dash. Should be interesting. I can live without the vehicle for a
day or two as I do the work, so I can take my time. Thanks again for all
the pointers. Where do you add the oil?

I had the dash out of a '92 XJ and my '88 MJ and I would suggest a
couple of steps that are not totally obvious. First, do something to
mark (or at least get a firm picture) of just how the wiring harness
is routed. The harness stays in but it is tied to the dash panels and
getting it back straight and snug is a PITA - to say the least - if
your hands are as big as mine. The second gotcha to look out for also
involves the wiring bundle(s). Be very careful not to pinch any of
the wires when you put things back.

Ah! one more thing: when you pull the screws out of the defrost
deflectors, try not to drop them down the defrost tubes...

Please explain. Pressure testing is somthing done to heater cores and other
cooling system parts. The evaporator is a air conditioning part.
