Hi Guy's

It's a Disco1 1995.

The issue is when the A/C on & i drive it for around 20 to 30 min in traffic the car die's it just shuts off the engine, then if i start it back after 5min it starts & run's normal without the A/C if i switch on the AC back the engine shuts off again after few meter's.

The temperature gauge is normal in the middle sharp 50%. But if i open the hood the engine seems very hot.

I have checked the 2 fans for the A/C its working like crazy,
I checked the temperature gauge sender its working fine.

& the petrol consumption is very bad too as 200km per full tank that really sucks.

Please advice, what could be the couse....... ?

Sounds to me like something is getting too hot regardless of what the gauge is showing.
