In the video the service valves should have been backseated before removing the hoses. This removes any chance of losing a charge due a shrader valve failure. Ask me how I know.

I had trouble with the shraders as well. the first tiem I did the system everything checked out no leaks. after it was all done it leaked down. I found the low side shrader which had my hose on it during the test was leaking after I removed the hose. the second time it charged ok then the expansion valve jammed. im 0 fer 2
