im about to buy a crx and the guy told me it wont let u shift after 4.5k rpm's.he said he heard sumtin bout its the dizzy.i have no clue.if n e one knows wut the prob is or how to fix it and like wuts it gonna coast me please let me know.thanks!!

 

So your are saying that if you do not drive the engine past 4500 rpms it shifts fine but if the engine spped goes over 4500 that it will not go into gear or it grinds...
that would be an internal transmission problem my friend...Now if t will not rev past 4500 rpms that could be distributor or ecu related.

 

well u c i havent driven the car yet.i jus wanted to get sum info on it first.check it out for urself.tell me if you think its worth it.i mean i am gonna test drive it and all.so i guess ill post updates abit later.car isnt even gonna b for me.itll be girl driven.well let me know ur opinion.thanks!

if its a rev limiter, check for codes on the ecu. is there a check engine light?? If the motor is running in safe mode, do to some sensor being messed up, it could cause it to have a very low rev limiter, and possibly it would also cause it to run rich.

 

hmm.well i jus drove it.there isnt a check engine light.the car runs fine.i mean after a while its got a burnin smell to it.prolly oil or sumtin.i rev it up and its limit is 4k.when i drive it it stops there too.im thinkn sumtin wrong in the ecu codes or sumtin.

 

go meet him up and give him $700 cash cuz your basically buying a shell. if he says no just walk away I bet you 100 grand and my left nut you will leave with the car. and I bet hell be like how bout 800. just be like NO

 

hmm that sounds like problem I had one time for a very short period (about 2 hours) the check engine light came on though and I got an error code 10 and the ecu made the revs limit to about 4k it turned out to just be a loose connection on my intake air temp sensor.

 

If you are swapping it then who cares but if its the daily driver then 700 bills. Because what ever is wrong you have to fix
