RE: HELP!!! aircond. problems, i guess!
Sounds like a vacuum leak, does the A/C work fine other wise?. If so check all the vacuum elbows, hoses etc. A vacuum leak will cause a bad idle. Coupled with the added load of the A/C compressor (as much as 5HP) will make the car stall. My advice is to look at this problem as a bad idle problem.
Check the Idle air Control valve under the black cover at the throttle body. Make sure you hear or feel it vibrate at idle. From that vacuum tee trace all the lines and check the elbows and lines for cracks.
When was the last time you had a tune-up?
Are you getting a Check Engine Light?
