Weird problem
I have a 86 Rx-7 FC. The problem with my vehicle is that it can't get past 1800 rpms on any gear and if it somehow does manages to get past 1800 rpms it lunges forward and/or the accelerator stops working. Is this a common problem? I'm new to these types of cars. Any information on this is gladly appreciated.
