A/C Compressor fast recycle

I have a 1999 F250SD with V10 and the compressor recycles about every 4 to 5 seconds and doesn't cool very much. I checked the 134a level and according to my guage it has sufficient level. What could be my problem. Thanks.

Good idea SHO, but I did that and came up with zero hits....I entered A/C Compressor in the search function of FAQ's, if you have a better idea of what to use in the search function shoot it to me. I need to know how to use this search thingy.

Search???? WTH? Just look at the stickied threads at the top of this section of the forum? See the red letters that say "Read first" and "HVAC FAQs"?

Compressor fast recycle

Thanks SHO89, My handi-dandi guage from WalMart is going into the next yard sale. I added some 134 to the system and lo and behold I have cool air.......Many thanks. I seldom use the 250 except to pull my 5th wheel camper and I guess some leaked out from just sitting so much.
