Default need help setting idle for running A/C Megasquirt First Gen(white)

I got my base map loaded on, the car drives fine but when i turn the a/c on at idle it wants to stall, i hear about a drop down menu for a/c but i cannot find it.. if anyone can help with this issue thanks for now I'm going to continue to do my research.

There is no A/C menu for it on the first gen. On mine I had to set the idle for about 1100 RPM and tune closed loop once I got it stable there. Even then it wasnt perfect. It will help if you look at your RPM/KPA with A/C on, add a row for that in your ignition table and give it lots of timing. The problem is the A/C sucks a ton of torque, and at idle were not making very much. This makes it difficult to tune.

Good luck

For me, the only true solution was writing my own software to handle the torque.

Exactly what MSPNP revision is this? The final revision of the '94-'95 MSPNP incorporated an analog idle-up circuit similar to the one in the Gen 2 V1.2s.
