Sizes are metric. Typically, high side is #6 and low side is #8.

In addition, lube each o-ring with compressor oil or Nylog Blue (for R-134a) or Red (R-12).

The FC RX7 AC system does not use an orifice tube. It uses an expansion valve located inside the evaporator case.

It seems you may have insufficient refrigerant in the system.
