Default Another A/C Problem Thread..

The compressor / clutch locked up.. I Replaced the Compressor and Drier but not condenser .. Shop said it was probably ok when I had it evacked. (probably..?)
So after replacing the compressor/drier and evac and recharge done, the air came on and was fairly cool.. Tried it later in the day when it was hotter outside and the air barely cooled the car.. Compressor comes on and the air kicks in.. I can fill the slight chill from the vents...so it is partially working..
It is Blowing fine just not that much cold air.. You have to put your hand right up to it to feel the chilly air?

Could it be the condenser maybe? Pressure checked out good after vac/recharge.. so I am a little stumped.

Thanks!!!!

Anyone.. have any ideas on this one.. I am going to take it somewhere tomorrow and I would like to have an idea of what it may be.. I have not been fortunate enough to find a shop around here that I know well and trust. I am sure there are good ones..I just have been to any except for the one that diagnosed it the first time.
Thanks!!!
