You are at a hit and miss on oil charge>
Did the replacement compressor have oil in it.
I have got some with a heavy charge10 oz or un know oil.
32/225 at 2K is good pressure and ac should be working good.
Does it hold at 32 low or cycle up and down with compressor and engine running?

I did add pag 150. The replacement (four seasons) did have freeze 32 or something in it, but said to add oil as per manufactures intructions. Since the old one had 0 to drain, I added two oz pag 150 .
I didnt notice it cycling up and down, seemed to hold steady. I didnt wait long, but unhooked everthing and headed 13 miles to work, stop and go in 90 degrees. I don't have the gauges, but the front was close to 50 degrees(when the air speed was lowest), the rear 60 degrees. I would put it in N and run the rpms over two at the few lights I hit. I was hoping it would get better on the drive, but it did not.
Before the problem, it would cool high 30s low 40s at low air speed, even when hot outside.
The compressor remains quiet.
At this point, its a we bit better than before changing parts, but still well under the usual performance of 28/320 and 40 degrees at the vents.
I do appreciate the insight
