I am disconnectin the line to remove the pump. I till we off for a week. I suspect I will need to at least add coolant if not purge the system.

The proper way to do this....

Evacuate the system of all freon,pag oil, moisture.

Refill with pag oil, remove moisture, do a system check for any leaks. Fill with freon.
