i have a 95 chevy s10 pickup, and it busted lower rad hose, put a new one on, truck was over heating, discovered fan belt tensioner needed to be replaced, fixed it. now, when i turn the a/c on, the engine seems to bog a little bit, and the whole car vibrates, any ideas??

just a guess:
since it is quite humid in Florida, and you DID bust a rad hose. odds are the DEX-COOL/glycol got on the belt. and it is probably still on there. when the A/C clutch engages, and grabs hold, if the belt is old/fatigued, and/or covered with a slippery substance, slippage could result, which would cause idle fluctuation, slight belt deflection, and minor vibration. only does it with A/C on? how many miles? compressor could also be going. you said the truck overheated? for how long, and how hot? could be plugs. I'd check the belt first though, if you say this immediately ocurred after the busted hose, and never before. hope this helps, chris |
