- Sun Aug 15, 2010 9:38 pm #209048 I get a cel light and go into limp mode when I try to go past 3k only when driving. When not driving I can rev to 7 k. Cel will stay until next start up it goes away. Any ideas??????

- Sun Aug 15, 2010 10:37 pm #209053 have you checked to see what CEL code it's throwing?

You should still get a code

The code is stored in the ECU. Jumper the diagnostic plug and retrieve it.
