And where there may be a connection at hose.
Expansion valve, evaporator, condensor,dryer, and the pump itself
It does not hurt ones pocket very much to do this simple thing.
No leaks is the answer to the AC working good for much time.

Good evening,

The most common leak is faulty "o" rings where the lines connect to the
compressor. I would check these first. Be sure to use AC quality "o"
rings and not the ordinary rubber variety.
There are also several other "o" rings where connections are made. The
dryer and the needle valve are two I can think of. You might also have a
leak in a rubber line, but I would check the fittings first.
Another source of a leak is the seal behind the compressor pulley.
