anyone please help me?

 

More often than not issues like this are related to the distributor, outside of the car having vtec, which yours does not.

I would swap out the distributor with one pulled from the junkyard and see if redlines.

It's tough to diagnoses issues like this since there are no codes to point you in the right direction.

 

Check throttle cable, ensure it is allowing the throttle plate to go wide open, when pedel is to the floor. It may be stretched and needing adjusted.

 

im changing the fuel filter tomarrow and the injetors if that does fix anything the the thing you told me will be the next thing i fix thsnks to both of you anyone got some options?

 

I'd save that money and time for something else.

Check for any stored codes. Then verify the tach reading with a meter/tool. The tach in the gauge cluster could be reading wrong - would not be the first time. There is a factory test lead for the tach under the hood, too early and too lazy to look up the exact location but I think it is on/near the righ/pass side front strut tower - blue wire that should be capped off.

 

im going to look for it right thanks let me see if i find it

 

i cleaned my injector and new fuel filter and new spark plugs still rev limits and 5k rpm i even put a new cluster still the same thing no cel lights i probly have stored codes or something how to i fix my problem?

 

What a huge surprise.

 

are you sure the distributor would fix the problem i don't want to buy and for no reason ?

 

Before jumping into a distributor, pull your upper timing cover off and check the timing. If the timing belt is off by one tooth, the red line will go down.

Is this car manual or automatic?
