whats up? new member, Nick Steeves all the way from Halifax Nova Scotia Canada. anwyays, i just bought my 93 J30, about 90K miles.

heres the problem:

so im in Drive, i rev up (past 4000) to get past someone on the highway. once im past them if i step on er again the engine just revs, with no go. the feeling it reminds me off is when i used to drive my firt bike as a kid and i would be in to high of gear and the engine would rev with no power going through.

if anyone can figure out what i mean, and better yet, how to fix it that would be dandy. the problem doesnt occur in 1, 2 or 3m which leads me to believe the transmission is mis-****ting and wont downshift qucikc enough.

comments are great, let me know.

Welcome to NICO!!!

Nice to see another maritimer on the board.

As for your problem, sounds very much like you need a new transmission revolution sensor.
