a/c is contents under pressure and should not drop unless it has a leak. how big of a leak determines how long your recharge will keep things cold before returning to cool again. You should have had the die added so that the techs could find what o-ring or part needs to be replaced AND THEN had it recharged. ---

r134a systems do leak down after use and miles despite popular belief . r12 lasted cause it wasnt as dense " i guess ya could say " . i used our refrigerant sniffer and u/v light with no leaks . jellies system held a little over 2 lbs and it was about 3/4 capacity still so not a big problem ---
