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 |

In addition to the limiter issue, there's a more fundamental failure. A very dangerous one at that.
If you break a cable the throttle should close, not open. Could make you die. |
