hey everyone my blacktop has been acting very unusual lately. basically i can't take my car on the freeway because of the problem. After driving for about 5 miles while cruising at roughly over 60 mph my car suddenly starts decellerating (even if i push the gas pedal to the floor - i have no control over this) so basically i'm forced to come to a stop. Once my car is stopped after this has happened i can't rev past 2000 rpm - it's as if i hit a rev limiter....if i try to drive off in any gear the car will buck and jolt the moment i hit 2000 rpm. so i have to turn of my car and turn it back on again. usually after that the engine will start revving itself to about 2200 rpm by itself consistently about every 2 seconds - sometimes it does this upwards of a few minutes...
folks i'm totally lost, been thinking it might be the tps, maybe the maf? i tried messing with the idle but it didn't really do much at all....any help would be appreciated...

Re: (180fan)
nope don't have an afc but i definitely agree it seems like a maf issue...i have another maf from a 92 ka24de i assume it won't work with a 98 blacktop...

Re: (180fan)
