I have an A/C leak "somewhere"..I have put can of dye in the system and circulated it for about 30 mins.. I see no sign of leak at compressor or any of the lines or valves.
I'm thinking it may be in the evaporator. Other than trying to find someone with a Halon detector is there any way to visually inspect the evaporator with a black light with out taking the whole thing apart??

Still no luck finding leak. I ran car for about an hour more and nothing is showing up.
Static pressure did drop overnight from 100 PSI down to 80 PSI. My wife's "bionic" nose says she smells a "sweet" odor on the inside of car, but after letting her smell some residue on a 134 can she says it is not the same odor.
I will try and find a shop with a Halon detector Mon. and see what they can find.
