so if they replaced a bad compressor and did a half wit job at that, and you have strange pressure readings and leaks....I bet your orifice tube is plugged with all the crap from the old compressor going bad

It maybe time to bite the bullet and replace the comp, dryer, and filter tube, O rings...do a full vacuum and re charge fresh
I clean the crap out of all the lines and the condenser, clean the HVAC box behind the blower motor, blow air through everything and install all the new parts.

I have been having good luck with the 4 seasons AC kits from Rock auto

I have been having terrible luck at keeping the ac going in these old fords though, our Excursion and our van (the family haulers) both have rear ac systems and what a PITA those are..... every year it seems a new leak = $$$$$$$ down the drain!! (and unhappy kids and wife, black excursion)
