97 ford a/c problems

Hey everybody I got a buddy that has a 97 Ford F-150. We recently put freon in it due to the fact the compressor was not kicking on. After adding The compresser stayed running But a/c was still not blowing cold. But the evap. was sweatin and drippin like crazy. What would cause this to happen??? Also when you go drive it if you give it any kind of cas in gear it will jump to burning hot air. I was looking under the dash and discovered that it was elc controls and motors that control the temp. The motor is turning with the switch. but it sounds like a vacume slaming a door shut when you give it gas. Can anybody help me with this. Thank you Greg
