BTW, the low side should be sweating not the high side. The high side should be either hot or very warm to the touch.

Another thing, what is your resting gauge pressure? (A/C off) I don't know how you'd see the 16 degree temp drop without the compressor not running but it sure sounds like your compressor isn't really running and you're seeing the idle system pressure.
The idle system pressure, "hours" after last use, should be equal on both sides and I would think in the >70 PSI range.
