This is a puzzler The only thing I can think of is a electrical issue, the centrifugal force is enough to open that connection.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help

I am not familiar with the Dodge systems, but does the A/C use engine vacuum to control flow? I would be looking for a bad line or check valve if it does. Just a guess.

I own a 94 dodge 318 and I had the same problem and also my cruise control would not work and i replaced a one way valve on a vacum line on passenger side next to the throttle body and it works fine now. jlr25
