a/c nightmare

alright guys feel free to laugh and make fun i deserve it
well i was going to do a readiator backflush so i bought a kit from autozone. so im looking for the hose to splice and when i see a hose that i think is the water hose, i cut it well some kind of steam came out in high pressure, just thoought it was the pressure from the radiator. so now i put my kit on it and run water through the hose seconds later i realize that my dumb crackhead self just jacked up my a/c. i ran water through a hose that connects to the compressor and now i need to fix it what should i do any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks

Not as bad as you would think it is but it is going to cost you.
You might be able to save part of it but it is going to take some work.
You can do it yourself or you can find a good air cond shop.
First thing the system needs flushed out and a new reciever dryer.
And you need a line repair where you chopped it apart.
Add new oil and put a vacume pump on it and pump and pump it.
A full vacume pump on it for a day should remove what moisture that is left.
Here is a link that may help.

Let us know how it goes.
