My 240sx revs to about 6200 then its drops down to about 3500-4000. it sounds like the fuel shuts off, but it doesnt do it everytime. Am I even in the right ballpark with fuel system?

Welcome to Nico, there is an insane amount of knowledge here on Nico and all you need to do is search, also, reading the stickys is a good way to figure out how to navigate the site, and keep yourself from getting flamed.

To be of any help, we need to know a little bit about your car, what engine do you have, and what mods do you have done to the engine.

again, welcome to Nico, and post some pictures of you car.

Might be a fuel issue, when you have this rev problem, are you under load or just free RPMing the engine?
