It would be nice to have some history of any past repairs.
As Jorrell say's, there appears to be a restriction between the two coil sets.
A manifold gauge set is in order here. So you can check the high and low side for flow.
The reason for history is to know if the system has ever been opened up for repairs.
This is a balanced system. Everything is measured to get proper quantities in the right places! The previous expansion valve systems allowed you leeway on charging.
Too much oil or refrigerant charge can cause problems.
Oil plugging. Excessive oil migration and laying in the lines is one.
Overcharging either one can leave no place for the movement of gas.
Excessive moisture or air in there. Orifice freezing. Anything that can happen along the way of an opened system.
Changing a compressor without cleaning the system is a big no-no.
Worst case scenario. Previous or now a bad compressor, as Jorrell mentions.
Where should you go from here?
Get a gauge set and weight scale, or get away. You are not going to get it right until you can see inside. No sight glasses allowed here.
Like trying to diagnose battery charging system without a voltmeter!
Good Luck, Phil
