air conditioning just started to go on and off every 1 or 2 minutes, thought it might be low, put some in but in, was on a trip, started to lock compresser up so disconnected it till i got home, put my guages on and let some out, got the low pressure at about 35 but the high keeps climbing up and clutch keeps going on and off cycling but not long enough to cool car, don't know if high pressure switch is bad or if there is an acumlater on this car can't see one, going to vacum down the system and start from scratch any advise would be great gib.

You really need to evacuate the entire system and refill, and check for leaks with dye.

Overfilling will lock the compressor.
