Wont rev above 4000 rpm

[clever240sx]

I have ANOTHER problem. I was at the local oreilys yesterday and when i was about to leave i started the car up and it wouldnt rev above 4gs. It would just bounce off 4000 and continue to to not go over 4000. I just got a video of it doing this. Also it will idle at 3000rpms.

Heres the video:

I have the same exact problem but except it doesn't idle that high. I'm guessing 1100 or so. How did you fix your tach? I see its a SOHC tach?

I just changed my spark plugs since they were gapped wayyyyy to high. I hope that fixes the problem. I haven't had the chance to see.

check your base timing.

bad coolant temp sensor.

Nismo Z ilvia: That was a great link!....i did notice the cover for the ignitor was cracked. Would that be the problem? I just changed all spark plugs and the oil. Still nothing. Now im going to check the MAF sensor and wiring.

Well I just changed my plugs and it helped very little. Im going to see what my ecu tells me now. I bet now its my TPS or could be my CAS.

Got 5 long flashes and 5 short flashes which means everything is ok.

if the ignitor is in any shape way or form damaged then usualy its dead.

I fixed it. My MAF wires were melted together. They got too hot sitting by the turbo. SO i tapped them up and set them in a different place!

Thanks for the help guys!
