What are the mfg specified low and high pressures for the airconditioner.

The air conditioner was not working to well so I added some R134A to the system. The outside tempature that day was 98 degrees (F) and the low sided would not go above 40 lbs while the high side went to 200lbs. Now when the van runs, it idels very high and it smells like the compressor is burning up.

I have been unable to find the specified low and high pressures. Also, how do you adjust them for the outside tempeture?
