94 855T AC quits when warmed up 850 1994

Hello,

I am helping a friend who recently bought a 94 855T with about 150k miles. It is quite hot during the day here in sunny Florida, and the AC in this car is acting up.
When the car is cold, the AC works fine for about 15 minutes, than it starts blowing warm air. If the car is already warm when restarted, then the AC will work for shorter time periods, 1-5 minutes.
I assume that the refrigerant level is OK if the AC can sustain its performance for 15 minutes. At first I suspected the computer, but now I think that there might also be some kind of physical issue (condenser?).
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Balu
