Default AC + light flywheel = stalling?

Just a quick question:

will a lightened flywheel coupled with an A/C system cause the car to stall?

it seems when its real hot outside my car shudders and sometimes stalls.

when its not so hot, it seems to work fine.

any rationale to this or is my car in need of tuning?

I see from the sig it's a "10lb OEM flywheel" maybe it was not properly balanced when it was lightened? Even with an 8lb and A/C stalling should not be a problem..

having the AC on causes a little load spike, and a corresponding small drop in RPM for a second, but my point was that it shouldn't stall out or vibrate excessively unless possibly something is up with the flywheel.

How/where was it lightened?


Yay for my first post
