thx for saving me from myself (A/C)

Actually the dude at Griffith's also participated in preventing me from turning a 'leak' in my AC system into a catastrophe and just told me to take it somewhere, fess up to mixing refigerants and let em have at it.

I took it to a local asian guy. I understood enough of his English and he of mine to agree that he knew enough to get something done, so I went with it cause I figured the price would be good.
It was good. He replaced the compressor, flushed the system, and refilled it for 490.
That ain't bad. We'll see. It's been cold for two days...not freezing. I mean, it's not Honda cold, but it's cool enough. Hopefully it won't leak out. We'll see; there was oil around the seal. He said, that's probably it, but who can say for sure. You want to try it?
Sweating in the Valley sun, I said "do it man, DO IT"
