AC issue....a little different

Yesterday, I ran to the store about noon and found the passenger side vents blowing warm air, yet the drivers side was cold. So, I figured with everything I've read, that I need to add a little freon.

Well, it got a little more complex...The truck sat for about 2hrs, then I restarted it and had the engine idling (1000rpm, hi idle), while loading the camper, and found cold AC from drivers side and passenger side vents. The rest of the day, it was cold, like that.

Is this just an extension of the low freon symptoms?

Yes, the truck does have the split drivers/passengers temperature control.

Mine does this too, sometimes its freezing cold, other times it can barely cool down my truck. And from time to time, something is spraying out of the bottom of my compressor, almost like its trying to releive pressure, but this seems to be random. I have checked the pressures with a gauge, don't know what the problem could be.
What are the correct high and low side pressures for these trucks?
