Make sure you're injecting some PAG oil when you're refilling your system. The oil is circulated with the refrigerant, and if the refrigerant escapes, so does the oil. No oil = bad juju.
Also, when hooking up to your system, be careful not to over-depress the Schrader valve. They're easily damaged and a very common leak point when serviced by novices.

Good points! Probably gonna take it to my buddy at Firestone. He said he'd just charge me $20 to hook it up to his system and check it out. Probably not a bad deal.
