did you recently have an alarm installed that taps into any wires to read rpm's? my friend has a 99 si and after his alarm was installed a for a while the wire got loose and he couldnt take it pas 3000 rpm until we figured out his wired was shorting out something that made the ecu not let he car rev past 3k.

 

ooo yea i did.. i had a prestige auto start alarm installed.. think that maybe the problem? thnx alot..

 

yes have them check that, and also did you change the dist. cap when you changed the dist.?

 

i think so .. but if it is the ecu, then the distributor had nothing to do with the problem then right? should i change it back to factory instead of payying for something that wasn't the source?

 

mass air sensor perhaps?

 

i mean should i pay the mechanic for something i didnt need to be fixed . cauz he thought it was the distributor but it wasnt. it was the ecu. so should i pay him for that or tell him to change it back?

 

yes also check the map sensor. you will need a vacuum pump. pump to 30in/hg
and check it with a voltmeter, should read about 5V, or autozone can do it for you.

 

ok thnx
