Somethings not right...
I have a 1994 automatic. Now this is technically my first car and Im already having problems. When I have my AC on everything is great. Im freezing inside of a minute and there are no weird noises going on, but my problem is whenever i push on the accelerater to go my car dies. Ive been told its my altenator and its not, I got that checked out. Also Ive been told its my compressor but I find that hard to believe. The problem is I dont have alot of money to figure this out and I need help!

Does the idle go up when you turn on the AC? If not, then the idle is probably going down too much because of the extra load. The ECU is supposed to up the idle speed when the AC is on to prevent the idle from going too low.

mine hasnt done that to me yet but mines a 93. however theres no real difference. sounds to me like what the other poster said. the scu is supposed to compensate for the ac. so when you put in in drive and strain the motor even more it dies.

It means that the switch/solenoid or relay that tells the ecu to up the idle speed is not working.

Ok new information, I went to Midas because I have some friends who work there and they thought it was my idle censor but come to find out its my compressor. If I had a choice it would be the censor because it only costs about $300 to fix but I bought a book on my car and im going to see if maybe I could get my b/f to fix it for me if I get the parts. Do you think that its a good possibility?
