You will also need a new receiver-drier since your a/c system is empty of freon.

They make these re-charge it yourself a/c kits in the USA for 134a. Normally like $25 for a can of freon. A can of freon that you can recharged your AC system - as long as its just low. What I like about those "kits" is they have a "sealer" mixed in with the refrigerant that should seal small pin hole leaks. Running your AC in the winter is also a good idea - bc the system is not 100% sealed. Normally freon leaks from the shaft seal on the compressor.
Thanks Dack your good as always just one thing that mys system is till full of freon it's just that there is no reaction when I'm turning on AC because the clutch of compressor doesn't pull the pulley. Do you think still I need to change receiver?
