Probably one of two things.
1. There is an thermostat on the end of the compressor that has gotten extra sensitive. You can bypass it. Difficult to get at but it can be done from the top.
2. The clutch is getting worn. If the gap between the clutch plates is greater than .025", than that is the problem. There are spacers that can be removed to keep it working for a few more years.
