FL Over-charged the a/c

Thought the a/c might be a little low on Freon, so I added some (too much).

System is r134; once pressure got too high the compressor wouldn't come on.

So I removed some Freon, taking it back to where I thought it was before the overfill. But Now, it only blows about 70 degrees, before it would be in the 40's.

Pressure is in the mid green area, but I'm guessing I messed up again.

Any thoughts before I take it somewhere to be evacuated and recharged?

Thanks

You need to completely evacuate the system, and vacuum it out for at least 1/2 an hour. Then charge by weight to do it correctly. The mana and denso systems take different amounts. I don't recall off hand but there should be a sticker on the underside of the hood.
