A/C rebuild tips

hey question, got a accumulator stuck to the evaporator.
yea i have the right tools (seasoned ac tech)
any tricks to get it to give up it's charms?

all of the rest of the lines came right out!
only 18 k miles on this sc... yea it is 2021! lol!
leaking at the orings due to age.
If you can twist it some that should help.. maybe a generous amount of WD40 sprayed up in past the spring?
 
total pita...
well i will replace the accumulator...
i ended up having to cut the tube.
no way to rotate enough to get it loose...
even with the pipe cut it gave a fight!

a real good super clean job on the evap tube and it is ready for the new accumulator.

yea i tired the soak with nuts off several days ago..... no joy.
