It may be "apparently" higher because the spring on the tacho needle is getting a bit "soft", and letting the needle spin further than it should.
I've noticed the tacho readout on my Wolf handset is less than the tacho in the instrument cluster.
Of course check the fan belt. (Although you would also have battery troubles.)
Are you still running the factory VC fan? And the shroud? Cams are not out of alignment? Timing is correct?
Since when ????Not since 1970s. My family's 1968 Falcon had synchro on first.
chinkeboi, why don't you keep an eye on the lights so you can be in first gear when they change?
Why would it be so difficult? All it is is a piece of computer logic: If <too many revs> then don't send a signal to injector.
Why would it be so hard to implement it as:
If <too many revs> then don't send a signal to spark.
As I said previously, too many WRX engines have melted pistons because Subaru chose to implement a fuel cut limiter.
Yes, it's been answered already. ALL Skylines with ATTESSA (AWD) run around in RWD mode until the sensors detect a loss of traction, or excessive G-forces during Accel / Decel / Cornering.
Morgan, your problem is possibly an out-of-alignment TPS not sending a "throttle closed" signal to the ECU. Does the engine tend to maintain revs on gear changes?The fix has been covered - search.
simply water vapour from the combustion process - nothing more, nothing less.I agree that it's probably popped an I/C pipe somewhere. Metered air is not reaching the cylinder, causing extreme richness of mixture.
