Default accord 90 loss power, RPM are Crazy!

Hi Everybody!, i have a problem, my accord 90 lose power when i turn on te a/c When I am doing a stop and i tray to go on, after a few seconds recovers the force and I continue as if nothing was happening (For this I need to accelerate up to the bottom).

On the other hand when I go in highway after the 2500 rpm the indicator (tachometer) becomes crazy, but I am not feel that the car fails, what to be the problem?

what can i do to find the solution?

Thanks!

Sorry for my english...

I have no idea what you're trying to say but some loss of power when you turn on the a/c is normal

Your in luck! I had that same problem too. It could be the Distributor. I had this problem untill the car died and never wanted to start on me again. After i had install the new distributor it worked fine. But first test your distributor it might just need a core, but on mine it was the whole distributor.

No problem man, it doesnt look like you are from the US

It is completely normal for you to drop some power when you turn you A/C on.. Reason behind it is, your a/c compressor is belt driven thus using power from the car when it is turned on.
