Well all was not well, it locked up again and fried the clutch. So replaced the expansion valve, and clutch. Pulled vacuum for an hour, and recharged this time weighing the refrigerant, as well as measuring the right amount of oil. Think I had the right amount before, but for sure do this time.

pressures now, 12 on the low side, 125 on the high. It was 72 degrees outside. Vent temp of 45 with fan on high. Everything seems to be working good now.The expansion valve must have been the problem.
