Revs question

Postby thereverend » Sat Nov 27, 2021 9:30 pm

Hello. Please can anyone help. i have a diesel 2.2 swb transit 2010. Sometimes the revs wont go over 3k but at other times you can rev the arse off it as normal. There are no problems when its running . It seems ok and has plenty of power. Is there something could be on its way out possibly? Thank you folks and hope you are all good and happy x

Battery charge won't increase when revving, the alternator will put out enough power to charge the battery at a fast tickover.

If the clutch is down, it won't rev past 3k
