Like every other girl i know my car is in a mood:cuss: Shes a 97 Cobra with 50,000 on her, no mods but a K&N. If the heat is on Mix or Defrost the car idle surges 200 rpm, any gear, any speed. So while you a driving you can feel the car surging in a rocking motion. If you put the heat on floor it stops. I think its a vacuum leak but i don't have a clue were to begin to hunt it down. But if you have any suggestions as to what it could be or where to start i'm all ears.

It is probably the compressor cutting off and on. The AC compressor works on the defroster also to keep it from "freezing" up in the winter.
