we had a breaking throttle cable this weekend on the 2.0 four.

We did have a rev limiting rotor.

motor reved up to around 7000

not sure why?

do these rev limiters wear out?

Cut out is supposed to be like 5500

The design is really simple-stupid to reduce likelyhood of failure. Is the limiter movement blocked? If it is, then the limiter can't move to create the dead short that kills the ignition.
