No I don't unfortunately. The kit only came with a low side gauge. If the low side is showing that high of pressure, would the compressor still cycle like that?

Possibility here-could be overcharged, moisture in the system and compressor problem-

I have not had the opportunity to take the car to a shop yet, but a suggestion was made that I would like to know if it is really a possibility before I waste time and money. As I stated, the line going into the firewall is nice and cold, but the return line coming from the firewall is not. I was told this is correct. However the line coming from the accumulator I'm told is where the orifice tube is and that if it were plugged, the freon would not continue it's cycle, thus causing the compressor to cycle on and off as the pressure would build up. Does this sound like an accurate possibility?

With out the hi side reading its a gess. To check the tube you will have to evac the system . I think on this car its called a liquid line . It might be sealed in the line. You would have to replace it and then recharge the system. Also if it is plugged then something els is going on with the system.
