Default air condition concerns

so i have a SOHC turbo HMT style. i have a question before i call dave, which i think can be answered by HMT. When i turn on the air conditioning the engine hesitates and at times kills itself at idle, when driving it is fine. is there i can do or do i have to call the MAN!.(Dave LEE)

kind of a ghetto solution, but either turn ur ac off when ur idling and back on when u start driving, or just rev up ur engine a little when ur at a light.

Possibly.... also go back into ur tuning program and raise ur idle. For some reason ur motor isn't liking the extra load put on it by the AC compressor when ur idling.

Its possible that the car was just never tuned with the ac on. And the fuel numbers there are off. Likely the only time the car ever sees those fuel cells is idling with the ac on.
