John,

Could be your CO needs adjustment...or a temp sensor that's dropping
off..hard to tell w/o having the car here.

Are you running 134 or R12? 134 never really gets all That cold down
here..and proper conversions are difficult @ best.. I'd be curious as to
the high and low side head pressures your mechanic was seeing when he
set up your AC...that could be very telling.
