Windin' her up!
« on: November 29, 2009, 06:50:40 PM »
Well, I've been running this 4 banger for about five years now and I'm still learning things about it.  I went "muddin'" yesterday, and that thing can sing a hot tune when my foot is in the throttle body!   :weee:  Since I was otherwise occupied at the time, I didn't  check the tach whilst enjoying the music.  This brings me to the question: does the 2.5 have a rev limiter in the TBI version?  Or do you just wind it 'til it can't suck any more air?  Just wonderin".

When the engine starts knocking, then you'll know it's done.

I wouldn't trust a rev. limiter to save you from stupid anyway.
