the rev limiter is in the ign module on carb engines and in the ecm on fuel injected engines. not adjustable in either case.thought they all backfired when when they reached the limit till yesterday ,when the one i was running didn't backfire but i know it was limiting.
I think I hit it once, about the second time out this summer, but the boat felt like someone closed the carb choke for just a second. I backed completely off the throttle and was thinking the worst----started up slowly again and have never had the symptom since.<br /><br />I know the gas was good and this little episode had me puzzled.<br /><br />Then I saw the limiter discussion on another post and wondered if anyone had a similar episode on the high seas.
