Default All mechanics please help ASAP

i just recently purchased an 88' rx7 and today i replaced the clutch and the slave cylinder. My problem though is that now the car idles at 3000 rpms and when i accelerate the shift light turns on at 3200 and i cannot accelerate past 4000 rpms what the car does is similar to when you hit a rev limiter. I NEED HELP ASAP SO IF YOU KNOW WHAT IT COULD BE PLEASE HELP THANKS SCARFACE_613

Is it possible you are in some sort of limp mode? I know 3rd Gen's do something similar to what you described when in their limp mode. Good Luck!

Sounds like you may have knocked off a hose attached somewhere to your manifold, intake tube, vacume hose, etc. Look all around for anything you may have knocked loose while reaching for something.

So the car was fine before?

Sounds like you have the 3800 hesitation
