Okay, as we all know all Chrysler made ACs have a vacuum type compression. Well the AC blows constant until about 50 mph then it'll keep running but not shoot out anything. I have to take my whole foot off the gas pedal in order to shoot out the air. It's not supposed to do that obviously. So what's wrong with it? What can I do to over right that. ?

OK - I'll venture a guess. It and many still use vacuum operated ducts to direct air flow or a mix of vacuum actuators and electric ones. Since it seems load related I'd look for a vacuum line heading thru firewall that is leaking and find a vacuum storage reservoir, a ball or can under hood with a check valve that is leaking, part broken since it can work. Almost all systems default to blowing air out of defrost ducts in a failure not quit blowing air totally. Vacuum hose may be rubber or a plastic that can look like wire FYI and usually when that type fail it's under hood and near something rubbing or hot that harmed it, T
