RPM drop when A/C is turn on
Well since lately when I turn on my A/C my rpm will drop to about 500rpm and the whole car start to shake what could cause that problem.

Re: RPM drop when A/C is turn on (demdem)
there is supposed to be a circuit that revs the engine about 2-300 rpm more when the ac is on, to carry the extra load. maybe its not working. i dont know where or if there is this on hondas though. every car else has them though.
