I have a '99 Cavalier with over 125,000 miles on the original engine. My problem right now is with the air conditioner. When I turn on the A/C to high blast while my car is parked to get it warmed up, my RPM kicks up from 800 to 1300 RPM from time to time. Is it because my air compressor or fan clutch needs replacement?
 
ya it is requiring more power to run the ac but it should not be that big of a boost in rpm so most likely your compressor is shot or it also could be the clutch system to the ac it is like russian rullet on that on i would replace both to be safe
 
It's happening because the compressor is kicking in and requiring more power from your engine so it has to spin a bit faster. Normal.
