3rd gear, high rpm, engine shut down
hey.
i have a 91 n\a vert and at high rpm's in 3rd gear i get a complete fuel cut, like, the engine shuts down until i slow back down and put it in second. third gear is completely useless when this happens. this just started happening about a week ago.
anyone know why this is happening? it starts at around 6000 rpm.
thanks,
i searched but nothing very informative.

but there still is a problem though
i shouldn't have my engine shut down at 6000 rpm's right there.
i'm pretty sure it's not detonation cause i don't hear any pinging. it's just like a take my foot off the gas at any other speed/gear.
it just freaks me out when this happens. PLUS... i did an ATF treatment after it happened the first time. and it still does it. i haven't tryied it in 4th gear if that is any indication of the problem.
basicaly i'm taking that no one but me has ever had this happen to them in a non turbo car.
this sucks.
