Maybe you leaned on the tube that comes out of the evaporator and busted the o-ring in it. I did the same thing, ended up buying a new tube for 40 bucks from GM parts direct.

try driving the car for a couple of miles. if it felt warm right after you were done replacing your pump, its probally just heat soak at the condenser.

O-ring was still in mine when I removed it. Only way I knew I had actually busted it, is I was charging the system back up, and refrigerant started shooting out of that fitting as I filled it. The whole can of r134 I had just paid for emptied out because of that.
