<< The Digijet has a limit too >> The rev limiter on the 1.9L of which I have knowledge is in the form of a centrifugal switch built into the distributor rotor specified for this engine. Stuart, The more I think about this, bolstered by some cursory research, the more I feel that I have been propagating some misinformation and all you have said is correct. My reasons are: 1) It would be a real feat of engineering to design a reliable, high voltage, automatic disconnect to fit within the confines of the distributor rotor and which costs less than $10; 2) The engine would probably backfire once the revs dropped below the limit setpoint. I wish I still had my '84 1.9L so that I could dissect that rotor. I hope this day of thanks finds you with many blessings. Rich
