The AC system on a auto has many components, the compressor is just one of them. When a AC system has been "opened" for a while there are things that have to be considered. It takes special equipment to repair an AC and unless you want to spend $400-$500 for a vacumn pump, manifold and leak detector I would take it to a professional.
