I just recharged the Freon and replaced all the compressor seals on my Honda Accord 85. But now the revs drop when A/C is turned on. How can I solve this?

The compressor seals were replaced, the evaporator was cleaned, freon gas was

a lot.

sounds like the electric fan is not comming on and the sensor that automatically speeds the engine when the ac is turned on isn't working.

Exactly, the ting is, this model uses a vacuum hose system that is too complex and I dont know where the vacuum pump responsible for speeding the engine is. Anyone?

To advance the throttle there is a vacuum connected to the main throttle with a rode when you turn the AC on this vacuum operate and give extra throttle to advance acceleration to maintain the load of the compressor, as in my accord this vacuum gone bad and been installed with a little vacuum motor,
