A/C is causing engine to stall then die
'92 F150, 5.0, 5spd manual. Here's a new one on me. I turned on my A/C yesterday and came to a stop sign and my engine cut off. It started right back up, then cut off again. I started turning off loads, mainly the A/C, and it ran fine. Today it was doing it again so I started some experiments with different load pulls, headlights, radio, etc. and it only does it when I turn on the A/C. I'm assuming that the compressor is going bad and putting an extra strain on the engine, but why would it idle down and cut off?
