When my 190 was doing what you are describing, it was because the auxillary fan was not operating. The compressor was working, but the high pressure side got too high and the high pressure switch on the drier/receiver was turning off the compressor just like it was designed to do.
It turned out to be a blown fuse for the aux. fan. I replaced the fuse and the aux. fan operated. That was a few years ago and it is still working.
