After adding freon to recharge system air got warm again and when pressed gas pedal freon sprayed out the back of compressor. Cut ac off and cut back on and let run for a while and compressor came back on and stayed on constantly and colder air started blowing and and continued to. Would there be a blowoff valve on compressor if over filled?

That's probably the best way I know to destroy your entire system. You can't simply add refrigerant. The system requires a very specific amount of refrigerant and too little is a problem m and too much is a real big problem.

I suggest you have an AC professional analyze the system to determine the real problem before you create a bunch of new ones.
