Electric Idle Solenoid For Ac Compressor ----- 1972 240Z

[jalexquijano]

I am tired of having to adjust my rpm to 1200 in order to use my Air Conditioner on my 1972 240z. I dont want to mess with the Vacuum and would prefer an electrical idle raise solenoid that kicks in when the compressor is turned on. Which one is recommended and how do i wire and install it?

Hi

 

You should be able to find solenoids at electrical hobbiest stores (Jaycar in Aus)

As to the wire to trigger it, I would look at using the wire to A/C compressor clutch to trip a relay.

 

 

Cheers
