Should compressor cycle on and off ? Usually shuts down for 15-30 seconds after 4 or 5 minutes of running . Seems to cycle less when blower is on high. The air is allways cold. Is this normal.

It should cycle, but in cooler temps, say 70 degree wheather, it should cycle more than in 90 degree wheather, this keeps the evap core from freezing up!
