I've been having a problem with the engine idling too high somewhere between 1500-2000 rpm. I've gone nuts trying to find a vacuum leak but cannot locate one. Anyway... I noticed today that the engine revs up when the AC compressor turns on. Problem is that the AC is not on. It is NOT on defrost either. The heat was on and the dash switch was on a mix of vent/floor. Why would the compressor turn on when the switch is on vent/floor?
