2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 AC high pressure service valve leaking
Seems this is the ball type valve and not the Schrader type on the low pressure service valve. Topped system off a year ago with an AC Pro kit and it's now back blowing cool air during mid day 90s. Found high pressure service valve leak after I mistakenly removed dust cap last night while topping off coolant again with another can. The cap came off with pressure and blew out the small round gasket inside it, coolant fizzled out a little. I bumped the ball inside the valve a couple times trying to get it to reseat but it wouldn't completely and then just put the cap with gasket back on.
Besides dumping the coolant entirely and replacing the high pressure service port valve is there anything else that can be done? Everything else is working fine otherwise. Freon was not completely gone, just a little low.
