Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Low Idle with A/C on

[ottawa4]

This is my first post hope it is done properly, My truck idles normal until the A/C is turned on, then if you hit the throttle to quickly it dies, really bad in reverse!! Help.

Just bump up the idle a little. That is normal.

Yep, just bump up the idle. I used to have the same problem. Easy fix.

FYI, the Dodge manual says idle (in Park, with A/C on, at running temperature) should be 750 to 800 RPM
