A/C Troubles?
When I pull up to a stop sign or light with the a/c on, once in a while it will run horrible. Misses, shakes, and stumbles on take off. If you shut the air off and gun it a couple times it runs just fine. Only does it with air turned on, and only does it a couple times a summer. Any ideas?

it happens, AC clutches, when engaged, put a huge drain on the engine. new cars even have a WOT compressor disable function to give you full power when accelerating. It may be a bad bearing on the compressor clutch, or it may in fact be a bad compressor. hows your air filter? any other restrictions will be magnified by engine loads.
