Subject:A/C Sealing and charging
From:R. Hotchkiss

Tis the season to try once again to charge my system, I had a valve leak
last summer empty the system.  The system however, has always had a slow
leak which nobody can find.  This year I'm going to use a sealant product.

I'm charging with Freeze 12 which is what leaked out.  I'm using Stop Leak
by Quest (red plastic container).

After I vacuum the system do I first put in the sealant, then the oil charge
(I lost some during the leak) and then the refrigerant?  Or do I put the oil
charge in then the sealant and refrigerant?
