it cuts off completely, or just blow hot air
I thought something was wrong with the AC, i would be driving and then a would get a shot of hot air, like it cut off or blew out hot air!!!
My '93 escort wagon did this. It doesn't shut off the climate control fan, but I think it does shut off the AC compressor for fuel economy reasons. If they were doing this in economy cars in '93, I'm sure they're doing it all over the place now.
My '93 Geo Metro didn't shut off the a/c at WOT. But it was really weird. Never put aftermarket a/c on a three-cylinder car. When you turn it on, you can't use 4th gear.
It shuts off to aid in acceleration, but also because some accessories (like the A/C compressor) don't handle the high RPMs very well, which is where you will usually end up when you go WOT.
Historically, people don't get flamed on Focaljet when they are trying to learn.
It's only when they try to educate and are obviously not up to the task.
