Scotty,
Go to Advance and buy a AC pressure gauge. Pete's right that it's cycling on and off because of a low charge or a high charge. Did the previous owner try to recharge the system himself? He could've added too much air with the r134a.
It could look like this or a pencil type gauge. Either way, you should check it out. Too low of a charge, and your compressor doesn't have enough lubricant, too high of a charge and you risk creating a pressure leak. Either of which will cause mucho bucks.
