I have a rev limiter on mine... Keeps the RPM at or below 1k, fricking fuel system Andrei (going back to work now, and trying to forget about that mess) ----- Original Message ----- From: "content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2003 4:11 PM Subject: [DMCForum] Re: Rev Limiters Have been all over my PRV and yet to find a rev limiter. Perhaps Renault omitted... I jest of course. Whatever car companies may be doing these days, DeLoreans are nearly quarter century old. Makes more sense to compare them to my Lincolns than a 2000 year model anything. That's why I roll eyes when people give me grief for doing so. Irrespective of whether EFI, MAP sensors, coil packs, multi-valves, etc, etc, etc are the hottest things since sliced bread or not, have absolutely no bearing on JZD's little car. Unless someone's burning a re-power. In which case my R30/Z7V is *STILL* more pertinent...
