-Check the belt to the compressor and replace with a Volvo belt which fits the compressor pulley best. Auto Zone belts squeal more

-It could need a charge but if it does, it may leak more afterwards. But the pressostat on the right side of the reciever dryer would have shut the compressor off if pressure was below a certain point like 10 pounds.

-If the charge is gone and you open the system, replace o-rings and check the orifice tube. You unscrew the black tube going into the firewall to the evaporator and you will see a little thing that you pull out. It is a filter and if it's full of black gook and metal chips, then your compressor is near the end. Some dude on e-bay will sell you a new one for $125 that he rebuilds in China.
