    Good to know. The last evaporator I bought from a different vendor was much smaller than original, I wasn't happy about it but installed it anyway ...

    I just did this about a week ago and I was able to get an adjustable crescent wrench on the accumulator body fitting and wedged it against the wheel well. Then on the topside I used another long wrench on the removable fitting and tapped it until it broke free. With the wheel well wrench (say that 3 time fast) secure you'll be able to get a little more aggressive and not damage the evaporator.
    This is very helpful. Thank you!
