Why does my car bog down when I Turn on the AC?
Why does my car bog down when I Turn on the AC?
A lot of cars disable the compressor momentarily on hard acceleration so as to reduce the power loss and let you get horsepower when you need it. A scan tool may not pick up and flag things that are marginal, look at air fuel ratio fuel trim figures and airflow into the engine read by the airflow meter.
What to do if your truck has no power?
Truck has no power and bogges down down when given throttle. I have changed the plugs, distributor cap and rotor. Still did not fix the problem. Replaced the throttle position sensor and thought I found the problem but still bogges down.
Can a bad throttle position sensor cause idle surging?
Idle surging can be caused due to other issues in the car, but if it happens in conjunction with other throttle position sensor symptoms, the culprit is often the TPS. At idle, the ECM will not get the correct information and the throttle will variate randomly causing idle surges. 3) Check Engine Light
Can a bad check engine light be a bad TPS?
The check engine light will randomly turn on and off even if the car is running smoothly without any jerks and stalling. This is often the first ever symptom of a bad TPS. Using a code reader, you should be able to confirm whether a faulty TPS is the culprit or a different component.
Is the idle air still working on my Camry?
Just replaced the idle air control valve and still have issues starting!!! A few weeks ago I noticed when I would start the car the idle would get very low then stall. Only by really giving it some gas would it start and stay running.
Why does idle speed go down when AC is on?
The ISC is what the ECU uses to maintain the idle speed when the AC kicks in or the power steering pump drag the idle speed down. You also need the IPS inside the 2G TPS to be correctly set so that the ECU knows that it’s idling.

What does it mean when your engine is bogging down?
This sounds like and electrical problem. If your engine is bogging down and you are still getting enough cool air from the A/Con system, then the A/C system will have a full charge of gas and will not need servicing. If this is the case, run the engine, with A/C on, at night and open the hood.
Why does my car run when the a / C is on?
As the A/C runs via both belt (for the compressor) and electrical (for the car system), you may see that all or some (even one) of the spark plug leads are flashing. This means that the insulation around the lead has broken down, and the electricity required to run the total power needs of the car with the A/C on will be low.
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.
