Well, He checked pressure and its dropped enough so compressor wont kick in. He says its a slow leak. He doesnt have any uv dye since cars he only helps out people he knows and doesnt need it for commercial. He gave me some solution that bubbles up to spray over all the fittings. I'll try this first before I investigate buying a uv kit or having an a/c place find leak but dont really know of any shops that specialize in a/c. Maybe Ill get lucky and a fitting is weeping.

Dreading the worse here, if I do get to the UV stage, to check the evaporator in the dash, will I be able to see anything w/o ripping the dash apart?

Thanks, Jeff
