Did you hook up a manifold gauge to the high and low pressure side fittings? You will need to do this to diagnose your system pressures.

Was the A/C system you put in new or used? If used, there could be blockage in the line somewhere.

Check the FAQ section. There's a great write up on A/C that should help you out. You can also download a helm pdf manual if you haven't already.
