I'm sure 99% of the freon is out. It has a low side tap in it already and I have a vacuum pump, gauges, freon. Just need to get all the repair stuff.
Copper is sized by OD right? Guess I could get some copper tubing the right size to cut a piece to make a repair sleeve.
Bridging a gap with silver solder probably won't work for very long on the high side line but give it a try. If not cut a small section out and take it with you when you go shopping. Any good HVAC repair service will probably sell you couple of inches of tubing for a dollar or so. Braze it in with silver, pull a vacuum and give it a try. Watch the heat near the reversing valve. They don't like getting hot.
