1997 Ford Taurus LX 3.0L Poor Idle Quality, Surge
Posted to Ford Driveability on 4/12/2011 16 Replies

Hi everyone,

I have this 97 ford taurus that is having idling/surging problems when the a/c is on. The car runs great until the a/c is turned on. When the a/c compressor cycles on, the idle will go up approx. 300 rpms more and slowly come back down to normal....
