if it leaked out, then you need to find the leak BEFORE adding more refrigerant...

check the pressures, if theyre low get a leak detection light and glasses, find the leak and well go from there.

or... i see youre in orlando shoot me a PM and if you wanna make the drive i can take a look at it for you...

if you have to add more, it means it leaked out... the **** doesnt just dissapear.

also, more r134a does NOT mean the system will be colder.

You should try draining out the old freon and then putting in new until designated level. That should take care of it. Might not be enough
