Pretty significant leak.

I saw the rebuild described on this page: http://trotliner.tripod.com/ac.html and thought that this may be cheaper than the alternative.

Anyways...I was going to bid on a reman R4, but thought I would ask here first.
My .02...
1) Are you positive of where the leak is?
2) No way would I try to reseal that compressor while on the car...
2) I'd buy a reman compressor and install it before I screwed around with pulling the clutch off of an R4

Kevin,
If you want to come over we can get the sniffer to confirm where the leak is.
