Huh!? :?
WTF did I just read??
Your explaining skills need more work.

You have one of those "magic" voltage stabiliser things that is supposed make your car run "better"??

You took it off, now your engine shudders when the AC comes on???

Sounds like it hasn't got enough earths Alfred. Add a few more from the battery negative terminal to the engine block and that should sort it. Otherwise there's something wrong with the idle controller that's stopping it from raising the idle for aircon. Does it try to stall when you steer from lock to lock at idle (assuming it has power steering). Resetting the ECU *could* help.

Sounds like a loose earth at one of the points, either on the chassis or block.

Or the battery terminal itself?
