Default Re: AC not working

So it turns out you need a special adaptor to connect the pressure gauge/hose to the new refridgerant bottle. Apparently if you have a older pressure gauge/hose it will not work with the newer bottles (It might just be a CA thing).

The good news is that my compressor and AC does work when the refridgerant is full. The bad news is that I have a bad leak somewhere. After a day its all empty.

I bought some more refridgerant with the UV dye and looked for the leak but can't find it. You'd think it would be easy to find with such a bad leak. The only place I didn't check was the evaporator area inside the dash. Anyone ever pull out the dash to get to the evaporator core?
