Engine does not rev over 4,000 RPM?
Hey guys, I have a different question. I was revving my engine the other day, and I noticed that it does not go over 4,000 RPM. It almost seems as the fuel cuts off. It will go up to 4,000 and jump down and back up, but never over 4,000. Can you guys provide me with any explaination why?

I never had the chance to actually drive it and try to go over 4,000 Rpm, and I probably won't. (I'm 15 and have to drive with my parents.) So I've just been able to free rev it. It's a 97 3.8.

First of all it is pretty dumb to rev an unloaded engine as it can cause serious damage. Many GM engines have a rev limiter that prevents just what you were trying to do, revving the engine with no load connected (neutral/park).
