hey lets try this agian since people like to LOCK threads for stupid reasons....

i have just bought a 90 talon NA,,, and when ever i get up to 3500, ut seems like its hitting fuel cut or like the is a rev limiter.. im sure its not fuel cut i have never heard of a NA car hitting fuel cut i have replaced the plugs, the isc motor, o2 , and i have no clue what the problem is

what i think....
it seemed fine right after i replaced the o2, but shortly after it was doing the same thing....
maybe a bad maf sensor makeing my car run very rich (the car is running extremly rich) which has fouled outmy o2 again???

what do you guys think

Another thing that you might want to check is the cat. Often these will degrade and collapse, especially on a DSM as old as yours. I also agree that MAF sensor could be the culprit. Are you getting a CEL at any time? As a precaution, you may want to have the car scanned or have a friend with a datalogger hook in and see if any codes come up. Make sure you also check out the plug wires and the coil pack since those can all be likely culprits. As a final check, don't forget to replace the fuel filter since what you're experiencing could also be fuel starvation.

Let us know what you find,

Andy

Seriously though. Defiant is right. You cannot follow the rules and thusly your thread is locked. Start another one bashing mod. It will get locked. Report the post while bashing a mod and you will get suspended.
