whats up guys, just got the car tonight. 2002 black on black GT 5spd, bone stock.
when i was at the dealership, i tested everything out, and at that time the a/c worked fine, when it was turned on, rpm's dropped like normal cars would, and came back up.
then i drive it home, i had the a/c off windows down, etc.
get home, my dad checks the car out, likes it, goes and turns the a/c on and the car dies.
my "car guy" neighbor seems to think the idle needs to be raised, though its at about 700 and i think thats pretty normal for 4.6ers(since i also have a 94 tbird 4.6).
if i hold the throttle at 1000 and turn the a/c on, it drops down to around 200ish but pops back up to 700 once its fully engaged.
i believe it might be an engagement problem in the a/c clutch, like its way too hard or something. but thats me.
any suggestions? i really dont want to take my newest addition to satan for them to fix a 5$ thing and charge me 500 bucks.
btw im a previous dsmer, so im pretty good when it comes to repairs, and im good at doing things to cars(i laugh at turbo swaps).
