76 Scamp A/C

I have the switch set so it cuts out around a vent temp of 35 and it's back on around 40.

I would suggest, you set the temp for off at 40 and back on at 45. At the setting you have now the evap is running below freezing. When we get into summer, the compressor will run longer, and it might slug liquid refrigerant back to the compressor, which will blow the valves, even if the evap doesn't ice over.
