460 won't pass 3000 RPM, possible computer problem.

Oct 19th, 2006, 17:17

My 1991 Volvo 460 accelerates fine up to 3000 RPM, but when it gets there it stops accelerating, as if it disconnected the engine on those RPM's/

I think it can be because of the management computer (Not sure how it's called in english).

I need to know where I can fix it, if at all possible. The Volvo Dealer won't help me.
Any suggestions?

Mine did somthing like that only revs to about 3000 rpm what i found was wrong was the exhaust was blocked.

That happened to me too but on a motor bike. It was a two-stoke and carbon flakes blocked the pipes. Took me ages to sort as I virtually rebuilt the b...dy engine before I found out.
