too late, I already released the charge so I can open up the system. The expansion valve was a Napa 207307 which
is in the parts reference but is pretty different from the old one I took off. The sensing tube is really long and the
bulb end shaped differently, so it was tough to make it fit.
I'll try the ACDelco 15-5481 next; about 3x the price but looks more like the old one.

Another bit of data: the high side pressure is only about 125psi at best. Is that evidence in favor of a bad expansion valve,
or a bad compressor? I tried releasing more refrigerant to see if anything changed, but nope, the cooling is just not good.

thanks,
Karen
