A/C has finally quit. Am I missing something on my checklist? 200 1993

The a/c clutch is only running part of the time.
1. A/C freon pressure is adequate

2. Jumped the pressostat and the clutch and it won't kick on till,

3. I took a dowel rod and pushed the front of the clutch and it kicks in and runs, but the air coming out of the vents is not very cool at all. And when I go for a test drive, the compressor quits again.

Again, the low side pressure is okay. This is the original a/c compressor and it has 248K on it.

Does this sound like a clutch/compressor has finally died or am I missing something else to check??
