Car issue

I assume you know it used to go over 4k rpm in P or N? I could see an OEM programming a rev limiter when not in gear to prevent people from doing stupid ****.

Maybe you lost a fuel injector? Had that happen to me once ('91 Grand Am #humblebrag). Seemed to run okay - no vibration or strange noises, just more gutless than normal. Seems like there would be a light for that, but maybe not depending on what happened.

I read that too but that wasn't the case with mine. I could blow out the pipes in P and N. It's an 04 (work commuter) that i bought about 10 years ago with a reman motor so I assume that must pre restrictor.

Regardless it's headed to the shop Monday morning.

Sounds to me like your Fenster sprocket flew off into your mitterwald valve, causing a loss of coolant to your spare tire.

Only the 6.7L has a Mitterwald valve. The 5.7L has the sphincter valve.

How many miles? Sounds suspiciously like a dirty throttle body. Also, Chryslers are notorious for bad grounds which can cause a myriad of issues. Could also be unmetered air getting into the intake somehow.

Yeah I agree with this. Pretty easy to fix a dirty throttle body if you just beat it off.I would try that first.

I bought it with a newly reman motor. Vehicle has 170k, motor 80k.
