Re:Rev limiter
 

right, just check your codes, and fix whatever it tells you is the problem, then reset the ecu. do you know how to check your engine codes to see what cel it is throwing??

Re:Rev limiter
 

Yeah, I know ho to check for engine codes, got the list and everything.

Re:Rev limiter
 

well do that and tell us what you get.......

Re:Rev limiter
 

for those of us that dont how do you chek?

Re:Rev limiter
 

holy ----, it's been posted a million times :P, look in the tech section under any topic that has to do with "CEL", all you do is use a jumper wire (paper clip), to jump the 2 prong "service wire" behind the passenger side kick panel, then you turn you ignition "on" and read the codes, this is a brief "how to", but you can find step by step detailed instructions in the tech section.......

Re:Rev limiter
 

most likley its because you have the HF engine, and those fuckers are 8 vavle pos's, so its not reving high because of its inafficiency (i can spell) i had an 88 hf with a a6 ecu. bwhahahahahah peice of should wouldnt rev over 5800

Re:Rev limiter
 

he doesnt have the hf engine

Re:Rev limiter
 

Yeah what he said, I have a JDM D15b 16 valve.

Re:Rev limiter
 

is your pr4 obd1 or 0, if it's 0 (for those who don't know) a light inside will flash the number of the problem code, very simple.

Re:Rev limiter
 

Try swapping the distributor.. more than likly the problem. Your Crank positon sensor is in their, and if it isnt reading right, you will get a low rev limit. The Cylinder sensor looses its output to the ECU, and it just cuts out. I've never heard of limp mode on a OBD0/1 car not letting you rev past a certain amount.
