I cleaned the box with compressed air, it looked pretty clean on the inside portion of the box. I also removed a single shim from the Compressor clutch.

Reading the gauges, Im getting around 70 on the low side and just over 200 on the high side. So, it looks like I have a High low pressure reading, and a Low High pressure reading. Ambient temp was 93F.

Any thoughts ? The AC blows cold when while running over about 1500 RPM. At idle, the truck starts getting hot. Probe thermometer stuck in the vent reads 50F when running at high RPM, at Idle, the duct temp goes up over 60F Essentially, I have to rev the truck at a stop light to keep it blowing cold air.

.
sounds like the compressor is weak
