Your a nut Ron.

Well the AC guy came out last night. I found out that my system holds 12lbs of freon. No leaks were found. He spent about an hour checking for all kinds of problems and after he vacuumed the system, the temperature inside the house plummeted. He set it at 72 when he started to see how it reacted and by the time he was done it was almost down there.

At first when he couldn't find a leak and when I told him it used to get colder, he seemed perplexed. He got out his temperature gun and started measuring temps in various locations. He said more than once, "OK that should be a lot colder than that". After opening the AC system and replacing the condenser and refilling the system he did put that vacuum on and it seemed to do the trick. The heat from the day was going away at that point, but it got cold really fast inside.
