I had some interesting results this weekend

I went out to work on the AC and saw oil on the expansion valve. Not Good. So I go and get the gauges and there's only around 40 or 50 pounds of charge left. Usually sits around 80 or so at rest.
Charged it up and had cold air!
I couldn't believe it! I drove around and saw as low as 30 deg on an infrared thermometer. SOB, if it wasn't leaking I'd be good to go. I think I might take it to a shop and get the leak fixed once and for all.

I wonder why it wasn't working before? I'm thinking air in the system, too much oil or a combination of both.
