I have a 96 cab all stock just a weekend driver. Seems that the motor runs and sounds better with the ac on. I know with ac on it bumps the rpms up a little. I dont use the ac unless really need because I think in puts more strain on the motor. On newer cars with climate control is the ac always engaged? I guess we have climate control sort of. Should I leave the ac on all the time and control the temp with the temp control. . Does it hurt anything? If I turn up the rpms a little it will run to high with the ac on? any input. Thanks

Leaving the AC on will hurt power, mpg and will cause premature ware.
Runs better as in smoother? What RPM with AC off?
Maybe rubber breaking up in the fly wheel plates as a internet guess.
