There's probalby some simple answer to this but i need some help. I'm wondering whats the matter w/ the car. Its idling fine, but when the ac's on the steering wheel shakes, and the engine idles roughly, and the shake is worse when in gear. I doubt its something major, but i'm justing wanting to know what i can do to get rid of it.
thanks for any help This post has been edited by Toad: Jun 30, 2005 - 3:20 PM -------------------- owner off a 95 celica st... hoping overtime to be 1 kick ass machine =).
Upgrades (comming soon)- 3sgte engine swap - small engine tweaks here and there - new paintjob (black w/ overlay of blue pearl) possible future upgrades- gt4 hood/bumper - upgrade the 3sgte turbo. |

Just a thought....but the A/C has its own pulley right? That's why you lose power when it is on i always thought. So maybe the pulley that the A/C gets its power from is like lose or bad (or maybe the A/C belt? although i think we have a serpentine belt so it's probably not the belt). IDK if this is how it works but i think is is highly possible. Because it would make sense in this situation. Cause when its on it shakes, and you say when your in gear it get worse, this could be because your making all the other pulleys and belt work harder, pulling on it harder, making it shake more......possible???????????
