idiling question

[ncsu brandon]

my car tends to choke down whenever i have the ac and the radio going, however it's not all the time. i've gotten quite good at the braking/gassing with the right foot but it's not something i like doing all the time
i've gone through and drained the ecu(unhooking the battery and then depressing the brake to drain the rest of the power) and then hook up and run with EVERYTHING on but it still seems to do this choke down ...any suggestions? i'm gonna go and do the whole procedure again tomorrow after class but it never hurts to ask

You must allow the engine to run at least 30 seconds before you add the loads during the idle reset procedure. There is also a chance that your idle air control (IAC) valve is not functioning properly. First, make sure the electrical connector is plugged in to the IAC valve.
