Default HELP!!!! problems with air conditionar

ok i have a 96 integra LS and im having problems with my AC. and was wondering if i can get some inputs below is a list of whats happeneing. this is all when my AC is on

- AC is not cold at all (put added free on) still not cold
- engine bay makes a knocking noise and feels like the car is going to stall (drops down to about 200 rpms) , but it doesnt
- while driving, about every 15-20 secs i hear the knock and my car lags a bit, then anohter knock and it goes back to normal. its like mashing on the gas, letting og and mashing on it again

this does NOT happen when my AC is not on. any suggestions?

sounds like the problem i had. some days i'd be getting hotter air than outside. got me pissed, adding freon did nothing. finally took it to a mechanic and they fixed it. they sed it was some sort of valve that was broken. i don't remember which one it was, and if it kept too much pressure or if there wasn't enough. spent a lot of money to fix it...but i'm happy with my a/c now, it works just peachy

I'm gonna guess that it's a problem with the compressor. Put a new one in and see if that works. Or don't. :dunno:
