The larger tube on the right side is the high pressure and it is the one that is sweating cool condensation. And thanks Again for your help!
Only the low side will sweat! The high side should be HOT!

According to Sanden the right side connector, nearest the fender, is the suction, low pressure side.

What you see, sweat, is the leftover refrigerant cooling capacity that supposedly a pro-cooler would use to pre-cool the liquid refrigerant prior to the reaching the TXV. Never mind that using up that leftover "cool" via the pro-cooler simply adds to the compressor workload.

What happens if you reversed the inlet/outlet port conections?
