Ok I can't fix my idle. I have tried backing out the idle adjustment screw all the way and it does not help. I opened up the radiator cap and it looked full but when I went to check to see if it was low or high, it was completely empty, that did'nt really make any sense. Can anyone please tell me what I could try to fix this. Right now it idles at like 500rpm and if I turn on the A/c then it just stalls out. Any help would be great. Thanks

mine did same thing, A/C was over charged, friends car did the same thing, he had bad expantion valve in the a/c under passanger side dash, was causing the compresser to work to hard, and stalling the car...

im in P/C too if you need help. Are you AF?

Bump. I still have not figured out what could be wrong.

a year ago i had the same problem, changed my pcv valve and problem solved. $3 didn't hurt my wallet.

the one thing people seem to forget is the pcv valve. although it is little and seems worthless, when bad it can cause this. it is only like $3, go buy one, replace it and then see what happens. takes like 5 minutes to replace. if that's not the case it might be your idle control valve, which also does this.
