In assumption that this question is referring to an automatic transmission a car's engine will not rev over 2800 rpm because when the car automatically shifts as the speed increases that is the usual rpm that the car shifts at. If the car's rpm is getting over 3000 rpm and still not shifting then your transmission is going out and needs to be checked. The autmoatic transmission is what shifts the gears for you. In a manual (shift, clutch) the person needs to shift around 2500 to 3000 rpm. The only reason someone would let the engine rev higher than that for a long period of time while driving manually would be on purpose to burn carbon build up on the pistons.
the engine wont start
hi with cars ive had in past that cause of engine over run is mostly caused by the timing being over advanced.hope that has been some help alan.dawson.74@hotmail.com
I do not have a answer for it, do you an answer for this problem?
wont start The starter engages and turns the engine over but the engine fails to run. And you cant do it not even if sober. The words of modest mouse.
The list is so long that a wiki answers page wont handle it
your ingine will make a sound and then wont start or turn over,
What do you mean it wont do anything... will the engine turn over... is the battery good... if the battery good and the engine wont turn over as if its not receiving power to the starter then it might be a bad starter or bad starter solenoid.
clicking sound but engine wont turn over. jump across terminals on starter if engine turns over solenoid is bad.
Engine Seized?
This is probably due to the fact that you are out of gasoline, cars can't start without it. :(
engine cranks but wont start means one of these things.. Air, Fuel, Spark, or compression
Does it have spark, fuel, compression?
