Angry 93 bronco ac

My bronco has ac that blows cool not cold but only on normal ac. I don't think it is low on freon because I used a gauge that shows it in the acceptable range. If you put in max, you don't feel the more powerful air it just stays the same and while driving down the road, it will quit blowing then come back after a while. Any ideas?

What are you calling an acceptable range, both high and low side readings; and which refrigerant is in the system, R12 or R134a?

I am checking the freon level on the low side with a cheap gauge, maybe it is marking wrong. I did the 134 conversion about a year and a half ago.

if you can get your hands on a set of manifold guages, it wouldn't hurt to get accurate high and low side readings. In the meantime, I am wondering if there is a problem with the blend door/heater core flow valve (whichever the vehicle uses).

I can get a hold of the gauges from a friend. When I hook it up, how do I read them? What is the acceptable range on the low and the high sides?
