A/C still leaking AHHH!!

[Benjamin Mason]

Ok so I’ve replaced the high pressure and low pressure lines coming from the evaporator. I then replaced the evaporator because it was still leaking somewhere. After doing the evaporator I got it to hold vacuum, so thinking I was good to go, I replaced the accumulator (receiver dryer). Now i have a leak again! UV dye doesn’t show anywhere other than the low pressure valve where I put it in at, so I replaced the valve core. Still leaking somewhere. I don’t know where its leaking at or where to go from here. Please help me! It’s a 2000 Chevy Lumina. The compressor works and the clutch kicks on when I charge it enough. What am I missing?

The compressor shaft seal may be leaking and hard to see. A halogen leak detector may help confirm this.
