Into my 89 hatch. I also did a auto to manual swap at the same time. I used all the a/c lines from the dual cam car, including dryer, condensor and of coarse the compressor. The car has ran great until I drop it about 30 miles each way on the highway the other day, now all of the sudden it doesn't want to idol. Also when I turn on the a/c the car completely dies. i know when you turn the a/c on the car is supposed to up the idol to compensate for the extra drap being put on the motor, I do notice that my car does not do that... so far I have

*changed the plugs, wires, cap, rotor*changed the alternator and battery*checked the maf and air filter*checked relays and fuses*checked vacume hoses....

at this point i'm pretty much stumped, I mean the car will run fine as long as I don't have the a/c on, but driving it around town you to have a/c. Any thoughts of what this could be? I have no idea and any input would be appreciated. thanks
