A/C Leak

No luck on the A/C leak. It seems there is a second problem that is due to a tiny crack where the aluminum tube is brazed onto the block that attaches at the back of the compressor. Wow, no chance of getting a replacement any time soon. I guess I will have to break down and take the car over to a shop that can repair the crack. It would be so nice to have a spare to drop off and have refreshed with barrier hose, but I can't drive tha car in this heat anyway. Phooey!
