    Just installed this used AC compressor from Morad the other day. Replaced orifice tube, accumulator, and all o-rings I could. Flushed system and set on vacuum for at least an hour. Left over night after disconnecting vacuum and held ~29 in Hg. Charged with 36oz (2.25lb) r134a per TSB #99-01-38-005. Yesterday while working on my oil leak, I noticed the compressor was leaking UV dye and was blowing tiny bubbles at the joints around the warning label. Don't know if it matters, but the temperature when I charged the system was about 60F and it was about 40F when the pics were taken and I noticed the leak. The car was not running when these pics were taken.
