Yeah... It was just laying on the floor at Harwood's shop the entire time my car was there, and he didn't do anything about sealing up. Just had it underneath the table with all my parts on it. Interestingly enough, he just vented the freon into the atmosphere when he disconnected the compressor from the plumbing. I thought shops were supposed to capture the coolant....
