So, getting ready for these brutal Oklahoma summers by replacing all the "consumables" in my A/C system. (gaskets, accumulator, flushing, vacuum for 30 min, etc...) When I was putting my 134 back in and after the expected 5 cans the A/C stopped cycling. Well today the system started cycling again. Thinking that maybe I was just on the threshold last night I went and got another can of 134 and decided to get UV dye in case I had a leak. Well, 5 minutes after getting the can added and letting it run to cycle the dye through the system, I found a leak on the seam of the compressor (picture attached). I'm assuming that this is not repairable but I would prefer if someone could tell me I'm wrong and how to fix this short of replacing the compressor.
