2000 xjr supercharge 119342 miles
just have some questions on my car i've only had for 1 year.

Bought this car last june 2009....everything been great til these past 2 months...i replaced fuel pump, heater hose / coolant pipe, due to a leak, and now all of a sudden when i turn my a/c on its blowing hot air, then my car tends to want to run hot "h".... But if i turn the a/c off after a while of driving it, it will run "h" then drop down to normal after a min or so.... I really need some one to help me on what could this reason be....

Check the electric fan relays. If the fans are not working properly you'll run hotter than normal.
