my ac compressor is leaking a lot of coolant. its coming from the back on the bottom and it looks like its leaking from the main case. its like theres a bad seal and i dont think i should take the compressor apart to reseal it. has anybody had this problem and should i maybe just put some stop leak through the system.

It is better to just get a reman'd compressor...install it with an AC delete belt, then take it to a shop, have them pull vacuum on the system and charge it.
