05 Super Duty A/C problems

My 05 (bought new in May 06) CC 5.4 2WD SD which is under warranty for another 6 months has A/C problems. It quit blowing cold air this past September as I was heading to Idaho for vacation. Ive used the A/C about 6 times since Ive had it. I took it in and they said they found a leak and fixed it. It started out blowing cool but not cold air after they supposedly fixed it. Now if you run the A/C for a hour or 2 , it goes from cool (not cold like it did when it was new) to just blowing air , not even cool anymore. I looked under the hood and it looks like they replaced the part with 2 or 3 aluminum type tubes/hoses on it which is mounted to the firewall on the left hand side. Anyone have any info on what might be wrong before I take it back in ? Thanks in advance.

Clutch air gap too wide? S'posed to be around .020". If it gets out to around .050", it gets intermittent.

Easy to test, and easy to fix it yourself if that's the problem.
