You only need two tools in life: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.

Your max. continuous revs is supposed to be 4000rpm and it says 4400rpm intermittently :shock:
Mine went over this once and frightened me :shock:

Back to your problem. Is there a soft spring you could have left off :?:

Is the pedal loose :?: and at what rev does this start :?:

Don't you think you're being a bit harsh (alright lets be honest) very harsh on your engine :?: :lol: :lol: :lol:

And 3900rpm is high enough :shock: :lol:

It's not a sports car :oops: :lol:
