Help! My A/C compressor keeps shutting down (91 5 speed). I can drive about 1/2 hour and then the compressor shuts off. Then it is on for a short time, maybe 5-15 minutes, and then off for about the same amount of time, and will cycle like this. The other day I drove on I95 for 35 minutes with it working fine, cold air, then it shut off and started cycling. It was only about 70 degrees.
The local mechanic recently found two leaks and fixed them, but it still has the problem. I think the system is charged properly now, but the problem persists.
I did a search but at this point I need some direction on how to troubleshoot this problem. I have a copy of the shop manual.
A few years ago Brian K did the capacitors for the climate control unit, as a precaution, I had the dash apart and figured it would be a good time. The fuses for the condenser fans are good, and they seem to work right.
Any direction on this issue would be helpful.
