    so it took 12.830 to fill the tank back up, and that comes to 12.2 mpg avg. and that blows a donkeys dick.

    Any 97-03 GP air compressor will work but trust me it's worth it to get a new one from advance versus pulling a junkyard one, cause you'll have to crawl under the car to reach it. They're like $130 at advance versus 200 at autozone or oreilly's.

    The thing is I have no problem doing it myself plus the junkyard here will let me bring it back if it doesn't work and get another one, also wat do I need to evacuate the freon that's already in there

    I meant crack it open as in loosen up the line to the compressor. Or you can buy a vacuum pump and pump it out.

    He means crack a line loose.

    You can always take the car to a garage to does AC service and have them evacuate the system properly, then do the swap, then go back to the shop and have them put your freon back in and top it off.

So I hooked the air compressor right up to the vac line with an air gun, and could feel the air coming out. Turns out that a bracket I removed from the LIM had a bolt that goes into the head. Little did I know that the bolt hole goes all the way through and into the valve cover area, so there was a bolt hole open to the crankcase, allowing water in when I sprayed the engine. So I got the bolt back, cleaned it up and rtv'ed it, and put it back. It's all good now. Then out of curiosity I put air in the intake afterwards to check for any other leaks, I heard one in the front of the engine, eventually finding out it was the oil filler cap o-rings don't seal well after a few psi is in it. Not a big deal to me.
    Got a picture of said bolt? Just curious where it is to make sure I didn't take the same bolt out when I did Matts lim gasket.
