1992 Ford Escort 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I have had my 92 Escort retrofitted for R134A by my trusted mechanic, but he is no longer available, so I want to tackle this. The pressures all seem good and the clutch engages fine. The line going through the firewall into the passenger compartment is cold enough to produce condensation. Despite all of this, the air blowing from my AC is just as warm with the AC on or not.

Could be freezing up and blocking off the orifce tube that needs vacuuming or the air blend door is stuck in the heat position

It's doing this as soon as I crank it on.

Blend door? That might be possible, but my Escort's blend door is mechanically operated, so wouldn't the selector stick?
