   That is exactly what the mechanic said when I told him about the leak before I   
   had the engine swap.  I was sort of hoping that when he re-installed the   
   compressor after the swap that it would magically fix the slow leak.  No such   
   luck..    
      
   He did say if it only leaks one can per season, it isn't worth the cost of a   
   new compressor (if that is where it was leaking).     
      
   TW> You can get the R134 with oil in it also as some oil is also lost   
   TW> through the leaks.   
      
   Yes, I have been using stuff that includes leak seal and compressor oil in it.   
   The Artic Freeze brand.  I just put a 19oz can in there and it does blow like   
   the artic in there now!  :)
