RE:99 Ford Stang 3.8 :)

This has been like this since I bought it.
Ummm Question 1 is: When I turn my A/C on my car wants to die runs at about 500-600rpm...When I turn it off the idling jumps to 700-800 hundred.

Also Question 2: Just started today July 21 2010 @ around 8:30am MST
When i come to a stop at a light or anywhere for that matter it dies. I have to keep my foot on the break and push in on clutch its a hasard waiting to happen please help if you can Thanks for your time.

Not sure if this is normal or not on the 3.8L. I would assume the IAC should open a little more to increase idle airflow to bring the RPMs back up.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it normal operation to have to depress the clutch and brake when stopped in a manual? (And yes I can drive a manual).

I'd go with Blue)(Fusion. Your IAC (Idle Air Control) needs to be replaced.
