A/C Stop-Leak in a can help please

dealer says I have a leak in Evap. it is leaking about pound+/week. cools great as long as I keep enough freon in it.
Anyone try stop-leak stuff from a can DIY from a discount-type auto store? Pep Boys, etc. stuff that is supposed to seal metal cracks, etc. two part. put it in, then put the second part in to extract the leftover stuff. this stuff OK to use in my Saab? any special advice? I do NOT want to cause further damage say to the compressor or clog the expansion valve.
also, is the 2oz of lubricant that comes included with some freon cans (say 12oz can) OK replacement for the oil I'm losing with the freon leak? I noticed there were 3 types of viscosity oils but one claimed was "universal". OK to just feeding the 2oz oil included stuff that comes already in the freon can?
PLEASE any assistance I can get on this. if I can stop this leak even for a couple months it would be super until I can decide what to do about the future of my relationship with this car.
