Limp Mode

Right got a 93 rx7 but it keeps going into limp mode, grrrrr.
I can rev the car when in neutral but when i put the car in gear and start to drive it straight away jumps into limp mode. All the breather pipes are fine. Also gear change every now and then is a bit crap.
Any ideas?

is it the hesitation, that is clearly described and has instructions on how to eliminate it, in the stickies?

Are you on the stock ECU? open it up, and take a look at it, to see if anything's "burnt". I had this problem awhile back... i kept resetting the ECU, but as soon as i start her up, the car goes back to limp mode. Took out the ECU, and saw sections of the board "burnt"... and i had to replace the thing.
