130 psi on the high side is low, not high. If it's 90 deg out the high side should be around 216 psi. If 130 is the high side and the low side is low as well, you are low on refrigerant. What are you getting on the low side?

If the high side were way high and the low side really low or in suction, you likely have a blocked expansion valve, rarely will an evaporator clog, if there is that much crud rolling through , the very small opening in the expansion valve is usually the catch all.


Condensor can get blocked, but rare, and can be flushed out.
