Engine doesn't idle up when defrost or AC turned on. Normal operation other than this, almost kills engine idles so low, but works fine if holding accelerator down?

Remove and clean the idle air control motor and the problem should correct itself. Located on the throttle body and should come off with a couple of screws or bolts. Use carb. cleaner and allow to dry throughly. Reinstall and should work fine.

do what GTP Dad said, but be careful not to move the IAC in our out while cleaning it, or you'll screw up it's calibration and give yourself a new set of headaches.

I took the AIC out and cleaned it as well as pulling the plunger all the way out to clean the shaft inside the spring. Turned it to line up the groove reinstalled and runs like a new one now. Thanks for the help.
