The accumulator needs to be the very last part you install after everything else is done so that it's not exposed to air long. You then MUST evacuate the system with an AC vacuum pump to -28 PSI for at least 20 minutes to remove all moisture. If you're unable to get a vacuum pump to do that, you're defeating your purpose in replacing the accumulator and chances are good that in 2-3 yrs, the new evap will leak again.
