Default ZC cutting out at 3000rpm

hey all,

im ironing out issues with my gen1, and today the issue is its cutting out at about 3000rpm in every gear... like a rev limiter...

any ideas what could be causing it to do so?

Had the same problem with an EF i just did a ZC swap in a few months back. Check TPS(mine had horrible corrosion). Has it run right before or is this your problem with the first start up?

Check you ground wires - one comes out of the harness and bolts to the bracket on the starter, also try adding a ground wire from the chassis to the corner of the ecu or make sure the ecu is bolted to the chassis. Both of these have given me similar problems

also if check to see if you have an automatic ecu unless you have been running it for awhile and it worked fine before
