Default Need help. crx b16 wont start

ok so i was driving my b16a swapped crx today and noticed started to loose lil power well when i got where i was goin and started to leave it wouldnt go over 3000 rpms. it seemed like it would almost redline at 3000 but when it was under that it drove fine. i stopped and me and some one looked at it and couldnt find anything wrong. so i go to drive it 10 mins to my house it dies. now it wont start. any idea what would cause it to do that at 3k?

well it could be mayny things. start by checkin the spark plugs, dist cap and rotor wires ect. also it might be a clogged fuel filter or bad fuel pump. also try to reset the ecu see if that helps.
