The valves are one of those hard to get to places, I can see the one side just fine, but the back, not so much. I was concentrating on that area last night, and I did not see any leaks, but there is only so much you can see with a mirror and flashlight.

I'm leaning towards jumping the clutch on the compressor only to have it circulate the dye around the system. Maybe I can manage to get that done tonight if things work out well. This leak has been driving me mad, and I can't give up now when the whole thing is so close to working again.

I heard of the propane/freon leak detector, I don't have access to this device.
