go to a professional CFC's eat are ozone. if you open up the system you possibly could release refrigerant. i no this because i have a refrigerant license its not a job to tackle on your own

HFC-134a, the refrigerant the factory would have used in a 1998 Cavalier, is not a CFC. (Although I believe it is still considered a greenhouse gas, and is not particularly well thought of by the more serious environmentalist. HFC is still much better than a CFC though, and no license is required to purchase or use it. R-12, a refrigerant used in older model vehicles and older small appliances is a CFC and requires proper recovery and licensing to purchase and use.) If you are just "topping off" due to a small leak, kits are readily available from parts stores and retail chains. If your system has a major leak or has been completely discharged, it would be a good idea to take it to a shop where the system can be properly evacuated to remove moisture and air from the system so that it can function properly. Air in the system means there is moisture in the system. Moisture in an AC system leads to a corrosive that will eventually ruin the compressor and components of the system. It also reduces the efficiency of the system and will not cool properly.To my knowledge there is no inexpensive alternative to evacuate an AC system.
