hey guys, new guy here. great site btw. mom's got a 97 civic dx 5 speed. runs great, 100,000 miles. when the ac is turned on the engine bogs way down to the point of wanting to die. no check engine light. won't hardly idle. turns ac off, idles fine. any ideas? thanks for the help.

 

Does this only happen at idle or at all RPMs?

 

i no at idle you can diffenitly feel the motor working a little harder but nothing like it wanting to die
