sounds like moisture in the system and after running it a while you get an ice blockage.

Im am confused or maybe just misunderstanding. It reads like it was just recharged then you say has not been charged in a while cannot say how long not my car. when was it charged last? what pressures are you getting and at what temps. If you do not know the pressures let me know when it was charged. There are a few things it can be a few you can check real fast but I would like to lead you in the right direction with more info.

No problem did you charge by pressure or did you just add freon out of a couple of cans? Also you said you vacumed the system. how much vacum were you pulling and how long did it hold with puymp off? let me know what you know should be able to work thru this
