My 1994 Lincoln Continental stalls when I use my AC for any extended periods of time. Typical it will drive for an hour or better but will eventually shut off either driving, in park, or coming from a stopped position. The system never shows any form of overheating. After I cut the AC off and leave the car off for up to 30 minutes, it drives like a champ.

Also if the car is on and in park for too long, it will shut off. Usually it will start back up after 5-minutes.

My battery is strong, terminals in good condition, and the battery cables and heads are good.

I paid to have it diagnosed but was told everything was fine. But it is obvious that it's not. Please help if you can.

After engine stalls check for spark if no spark suspect bad module
if you have spark and fuel suspect and replace IAC valve
