97 Grand Cherokee Air Cond. Problem
 
Seems like every spring I have to recharge the air condt system. I'm
wondering if a can of the dye would help in spotting the leak. The
evaporator was replaced by Jeep two years ago. Is a leak usuall du to
bad O rings in the compressor?

That's where they finally found it in ours. Took an A/C specialty
shop to find the problem. The dealer couldn't. It wasn't an obvious
leak. Replaced all the o-rings and haven't had a problem since.

I'll second that bad O-rings. Many of these guys seems to have a "one leak
at a time" mentality. All the O-rings couldn't possibly go bad at once,
being the exact same age and all. They fix the first leak they find, and
call it good.
