Yeah.... Same thoughts

As I posted, it was low on refrigerant. At least this will get me home so I can investigate further. The point that I was trying to make is that once it had the correct charge in it there were no erratic pressure problems causing spikes and drop outs. I will be having a really good look for the leak when back home, and I shouldn't cook the compressor on the way.

Local supplier has the compressor in stock for $645. Will also change the receiver dryer also.
