We just changed the spark plugs and oil on a 2004 pt cruiser, now when you crank it put it in drive and turn the ac on high it shuts off. The car does not sound right while idle, it kida sputters some, but does not shut off. If you put it in park and turn the ac on it does not shut off. Bad spark plug? or could we have hit something that had to do with the ac? Thanks for your time.

WHen you did the work, are you sure you got the wires back on the correct plugs? Also, did you gap the plugs prior to replacing them? Did you check to see if you knocked any vacuum lines off?
