I too am working a situation in this area.
After you clean up a bit, check back
and see what color, feel, type and or taste
the fluid is. 11S will have a greenish tint
if it is not 10 years old. If its old it will be
darker, brownish. If it is 11S check the
3 hoses and make sure they are tight on the
pump. I think its, 14mm, 17, and 19mm.
I had a bad oring under one and about
2 years ago a line went. Bruce at Audiconnection
got me a good used one but I'm sure others out there
could do the same as well.
One other thing, I also had a bad o-ring
on the top of the A/C compressor, there are 4
o-rings under the hose mounting block,
not only was I losing 134A but ester was leaking
out as well.
Bt as prev listers suggested start with a good
clean up job (brake cleaner)and go from there.
