Exactly where is the leak?,,,

You say the compressor is leaking. Do you mean the shaft seal? As to the blue cap, do you mean when you take the blue service port cover off you hear a hiss? That may be easy to fix. In the center of the service port is a small stem that looks like the piece in the middle of a tire valve(called a valve core), and works the same way. Take a small piece of wood, like a Popcycle stick and press in on it a couple times to "re-seat" it. Keep your face away while you do it. Is this a R-134-a converted car? (92 seems to be a year some cars came with R-134a) If its a conversion, were the valve cores( small piece in the middle) removed before the R134a adapters installed? If not, they need to be, as the conversion fittings will not always seal if the cores are not removed.
