Angry AC problems

Well after 2 years my AC has died. When looking in the sight gauge, it seems to bubble quickly and appears foamy. Does anyone know what the pressure on the Low pressure side is supposed to be?

Took some digging, but I found it.

Code:
GARAGE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE °F        68               77               86
Compressor low pressure psi	21.8 - 27.6      27.6 - 34.8      34.8 - 43.5

Did you check the a/c filter? It's located behind the glove compartment. just pull the door out and you will see two screws diagonaly opposed remove them and pull out the filter.I have washed mine two times . and it gets your air again blowing like new!
