RE: 4kq 4000rpm cutout



  I'll buy what Ian says regarding the 4k cutout usually associated with
the air
intake temp sensor _IF_ the car in question is a Ur-q, or possibly other
turbo
vehicles.
  However, Dan drives 4kq's with the NA I5 motors, and therefore doesn't
have
an air intake temp sensor.  The only cutout that I'm familiar with is
caused by
the wrong feul pump relay, thus lowering the rpm cutout.  But Dan said
he'd
jumpered the fuel pump when the relay died.
  Any other suggestions to Dan's current car problem?  I don't think
we've found
the cause or solution yet...
