Could be coil, leads or plugs. On early models it could also be points. Later models with pointless ignition system problems tend to misfire in all rev ranges

Why will my1988 pathfinder not rev up past 3000 RPM?

If your testing this with the vehicle in park it won't go over 3000 rpms because the rev limiter kicks in so you don't do damage to the engine. If you are in drive and you step on it when it's safe to do so, it should go well over 3000 rpms.

Harley Davidson 88 cubic inch oil pressure how much it should be?

Obviously depends on RPMs. Normally 15-20psi at idle. Could be as high as 30-40psi when the engine is under high RPMs.


When driven at 70 your RPMs are at 3000 what does that mean?

3000 rpm means that the engine is doing 3000 revolutions per minute. In a lower gear at the same speed the engine would be doing more revolutions per minute.


When you rev your Harley Sportster it keeps on cutting out?

Stock Harleys come out of the showroom with fitted with a rev limiter that cuts the ignition out at around 5600 rpms. Gets kinda scary when you overtake a truck and halfway there the motor starts to cut out. Can be overcome by fitting an aftermarket ignition module that will rev out to about 7000 rpms.(more than enough for a harley)
