Well on the AC I have a couple of sugestions. Is the clutch fan if installed
working properly? If it is slipping a little it will impact how much air is
going through the condensor at idle and low speed. Not enough air and it is
not very efficient. Also is you vehicle running hot or on the work side?
Last ditch install an after market electric fan if all else fails you have
to keep the engine compartment cool so the condenser will function.
