rev limiter at 3000 rpm

[Donn]

What is causing my car to hit rev limit at 3000 rpm. I do have a misfire code p0303 and wondered if that may be the reason.

don't rev the engine in neutral or park.

and you probably need coils. change the plugs too since your there.

Well I wondered about that, but it also hits the limit going down the road in drive.

It's called a misfire, feels just like a rev limiter.

Failsafe cooling will cause similar symptoms. You really should fix that fan first. (and then replace all the coils, plugs, and the PCV valve)
