My car has had a leak for the past yr and a half or so. but the freon usually lasts about a month and a half. Anyways, all the freon suprisingly leaked out a couple wks ago. I just got the time to put some more in today. I put in 2 cans a couple hrs ago, and its already leaked out . What is the best method to find the leak? dye?

Let me know
Thanks
Patrick.

Ditto on the Dye

look at the back of the a/c compressor, gm compressor usually leak.

at all the connections look for oily stains.

Dye is the best.. If it is a huge leak the leak detector will go nuts all over the place.

If it leaked that fast...im sure you will be able to tell where its coming from.

if it leaked out in a couple of hrs you dont need the dye, im sure its a visible leak and i bet you can smell it.

ditto on the compressor leaking. also another thing that is common are the schrader valves. but like stated best thing to do is use dye

get the uv dye and light, its not that thick and wont screw anything up.

I didnt notice any leaking after I added the freon. I'll try the dye in a couple days, It is so MF hot
