When does the car idle, the engine dies?
Car idle sputters and engine dies when AC clutch engages When a/c is turned on, and car is at idle or in motion, the engine sputters and dies when the a/c clutch engages and rpms are increased. The a/c compressor clutch intermittently engages and disengages, I don’t know if this is normal for make and model for my vehicle.
What causes a car to stop when idling?
Unfortunately, if the actuator gets damaged, the engine will no longer receive signals that tell it at what speed it should operate when idling. Hence, it stops. The same thing can happen if the system gets clogged. Excessive carbon buildup can also prevent the more accurate measurement of engine speed.
What causes engine to sputter when AC clutch engages?
For example, if you have dirty fuel injectors, mass air flow sensor or EGR valve on the vehicle, the activation of the compressor clutch will make the symptoms worse and more noticeable. However, if the compressor bearings or clutch is dragging, it can “bog” down the motor even more.
What happens when engine RPM drops below 800?
However, when the engine RPM drops below the normal range of 800 RPM (for most cars), it is more than likely that you are dealing with an IAC valve problem. In cases where this valve is clogged or is failing, your vehicle will stall instead of slowing to an idle after the release of the throttle.
What causes the engine to stall when the clutch is depressed?
As the car rolls along (clutch pedal depressed, speed doesnt matter 20mph or 80 mph it always stall ) the RPMs drops to 900, then drops to ZERO no matter how fast or slow you are going.
What causes a clutch to not engage fully?
A clutch that doesn’t engage fully, or slips under heavy load, is the normal failure mode of a worn out friction disc of pressure plate that has lost its tension. When you press the clutch, your foot counters the diaphragm spring which presses the friction disc to the flywheel.

What to do when idle is low when AC is on?
Clean the ISC, and check the operation of the ac pressure switch. If these are good, check the compressor bearings.
When does the a / C compressor engage at idle?
Here is where the problem started: that night after changing my battery, I went to use the defroster. When the A/C compressor engages at idle in park or neutral every five to ten seconds the idle drops and will either almost stall the engine or occasionally does stall the engine.
Why does my 06 Charger stall at idle?

There may be a fault in the computerized engine control system. The Fix: Bring your car to your mechanic or dealership to check the engine control system with a scan tool.
What causes a rough idle or a ses?

To correct any accidental changes in throttle body calibration, use these procedures to recalibrate. Note: These procedures are a little tricky to do. You must get the timing just right Use a stop watch to help the precision of your timing.
