Default Idle problem

Whats up I have a 95 Mazda MX-3 with the 4cyl in it. the car runs fine the a/c is ice cold the only thing is the idle. When i turn the car on it idles low like it wants to shut off and if i press the clutch the rpm drops even more and if i turn on the a/c when the car isnt moving the car shuts off and if i drive with the a/c on it feels like im towing a boat. And there are 2 green wires that are cut and i have no idea where they go or what they are for. If anyone knows what the pblem is give me any suggestions.

I'm thinking it's your O2 sensor. Replace that, and get back to us.

its a common problem with mx-3's, or any mazda b series for that fact. Happens to me on my mx too. Check for vacuum leaks, its probably your iac valve which is dirty or somethin. Turn your idle up and it shouldnt be too bad. []Deace
