hey i was wondering if this has ever happened to anyone here?
when i have my air conditioning on and i press the off button.
sometimes not all the time when i turn ithe a/c off the car engine turns off along with it. the car idles a bit higher then it goes low then it shuts off the engine.
anyone ever have this happen to them?
no, but I would bet it's related to the idle speed motor...
very common on the mitsubishis (changing idle randomly), the idle motor closes the air passage around the throttle body when the a/c is turned off in anticipation of the engine not needing as much air to stay idling... if the motor is going bad, instead of closing almost all the way to still let some air by, it slams shut, thus killing the car...
