right here's a strange one for you all :lol:

driving my white cav tonight , was giving it some love (revving lol ) and I seem to have lost my limiter now :lol: ???

I did have one last night tho :lol:

it revs straight thro 8 like its on carbs??

it runs a groupe N ecu but that's been fitted since ive had it

how are the limiters controlled on these? ECU or dizzy?

any help would be great as don't fancy my conrods goin east :lol: :lol:

I can't really see it being much else either, if the limit is set in the ecu then the only way it could fail is if the ecu doesn't know the engine speed, which would lead to other problems. Rather odd really?

Maybe your rev counter needle has slipped?

Its the plastic pin in the middle needs the centre pulling out and unclipping the pegs on the edges
