Oil can leak out of the AC line due to a few reasons, primarily related to system pressure imbalances or damaged components. When refrigerant leaks from the system, it can carry oil with it, as the oil is mixed with the refrigerant to lubricate the compressor. Additionally, worn seals, loose connections, or corrosion can create pathways for both refrigerant and oil to escape. Regular maintenance and inspections can help identify and resolve these issues before significant leaks occur.

What is sweet oil smell from car?

A sweet smell is usually coolant being burned, check your coolant level and oil ( look for milky appearance ) as it may be a head gasket leak. A coolant leak on the outside of the motor may indicate a leak somewhere in the radiator or one of the hoses. When an AC line is leaking I have heard some people describe the smell as sweet.

What is the process for detecting an AC leak using AC leak dye?

To detect an AC leak using AC leak dye, the dye is added to the AC system. The system is then run to circulate the dye. A UV light is used to inspect the system for any leaks, as the dye will glow under the UV light, making it easier to identify the source of the leak.
