I have a 2000 Honda Accord, 2.3L engine. Tried recharging it and refrigerant blows out of the suction line where the rubber and metal meet near the compressor. When I replace the line, will I need to add oil or just refrigerant?

If there doesn't look to be any oil leaked out, don't worry about it. Don't forget to change the drier!

Thanks! The service manual says it only needs to be changed if the system is open for a prolonged period of time, but I guess having a leak bad enough to dump all the coolant qualifies as being open.

Yay, there's apparently another leak in the A/C system somewhere. Going to go with windows down 24/7 even in pouring rain to keep them defogged.
