Hi all,
Is there a way of introducing a rev limiter?
For example, when I am towing at say 60 mph, my revs are generally around 1800 rpm.
However when I approach a long steep hill, pulling a heavy caravan, the auto-box, kicks down, and the engine revs up.
Now I really don't want the engine to rev up to say 3800 rpm, just to maintain my 60 mph cruise.
I would be quite happy if the rev limiter could be set to say, 2800 rpm, then of course, let the speed drop away accordingly, until the top of the hill.
I would rather let the speed drop away to say 45 mph, on the inclines, than have the engine revving it's bollocks off at 3800 and keeping the 60 mph set cruise speed.
I know I could simply reduce the cruise speed to say 45 mph, but that's a fiddle, and I would rather set it at say, 60 mph, and leave it.
Any ideas ???
