Have you confirmed that the compressor is leaking?

Default i agree with Tom... you need to put a dye in the system and check where it's leaking...

my bet is the compressor is OK, but the evap core is shot. The '96 MY is notorious for having the evap core $hit the bed... I had that happen, and it's a royal PITA to fix.
