    It's about to rain so I'm not going out to look, but my recollection is that the AC lines are on the passenger side, not the drivers side. I haven't seen AC refrigerant in a long time, but last I knew it was a gas that dissipated very rapidly. The only time I saw a liquid was when dye was put in to trace a leak and that was blue if my memory isn't faulty.

    They put a green dyed oil in it for leak detection. The actual gas does dissipate, but the oil will drip.

    Yeah, you’re not supposed to do that. Old school techniques can kill you.

    Good luck though, hope you survive and get to the bottom of it :D

    If you have a UV lamp that will tell you if it’s a/c dye, plus that oil has a peculiar odor you would smell it as soon as you got in the truck.
