Another A/C Question

Ahh, summer time and the never ending A/C questions!! LOL

When I turn my A/C on the compressor cycles on and off. About 2-3 seconds on then 2-3 seconds off.
Any idea before I mortgage the house and kids to take it to a shop?

See the FAQs in the HVAC section of the forum. This isn't problem specific to the Super Duty.

Thanks!!
So according to the FAQs its cycling because its low on freon.

I have another question that isn't in the FAQs but I'll post that in the right place.

Mine was doing the same thing I took it to ford to have A/C serviced and the only thing they had to do was add 1 pound of freon.
