[quote name='Rob x-7' date='Jun 18 2005, 06:33 AM']you have a leak
I would just get it done, you get the oil from a autoparts store, you measure it out in a container, drop a hose into it and attatch it to system, the system will suck the fluid in when its under pressure.
Locally they get about $185 to do the conversion.

You can look for leaks yourself if you want. This web page:

It gives alot of easy things that a "layman", which I am, with auto air conditioners can do. Maybe you'll be lucky and it's a loose fitting that you can tighten up. But realistically you'll most likely have to get a shop to find the leak, vacuum the system, and recharge it. $$$. But it may be worth it for you.

if it has the oil there is a UV dye in it so they can see it with a light, or they can use the sniffer that beeps when it sniffs the leak
usually its o-rings on the lines, or the condensor itself might be leaking from a accident
