Check the pressures though - that'll tell you what's going on.

I would bet the orifice tube

Too much head pressure. Plugged up lines or plumbing, orifice tube, fan
clutch or just a bad compressor.

If it's not one thing, it's another!!! At least a new DVOM cured the
strange voltage readings. Now the A/C likes to relieve itself once in a
while. Out the back of a '93 compressor, there's what seems to be a
pressure relief valve. It's gone off a few times already spewing compressor
oil mist all over the engine bay. I didn't take any pressure readings yet
(the low pressure manifold line seemed to disappear) but are there any
initial ideas what would cause this?

Thanks,
James
