Sounds like your engine runs hot with the a/c on do you ever hear the a/c condensor fan come on?What are the high and low pressure reading with the a/c off?

I would get a air compressor and blow out the a/c condensor and radiator fins to make sure there is good air flow coming thru.Also you need to check you a/c pressures high and low with the a/c running and a/c that will figure this problem out also.
