A/C Leak from low pressure filler valve

Hey all. I think I lucked out. I've had a leak in my A/C for a while and it started to get worse. I put UV dye in it and pretty sure I've narrowed it down to the schrader valve on the low pressure side. It looked like all the dye came back out and is just dripping out. My question is what kind of tool I need to pull the valve. I found several on various websites that show they may or may not work. I'm trying to pull it without getting air in. There's no R134 left in the system, or very little. Anyone have any experience with this procedure and can point me to the correct tool? I found the valve already. Thanks in advance.

you can take it to ac shop they should do it for cheap and its much better than messing something up and have to vacuum the whole system, they should be able to do it without letting any coolant out. just call around
