Did the stop leak dry in the low side valve blocking the passage? Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can see what's going on? that would be great. You can upload it here with your response. Here is a video that shows how to charge the system:

The stop leak plug the garage on the charging adapter. Use a different charging adapter and took Freon fine. System is recharged.
