You Don't Rev Your Engine In Park... That's a HORRIBLE Idea... I'm not sure what the problem is but If you're gunna destroy your motor, do it in Neutral... That can really mess up your car...

Okay fellas... a little attention to articulation!

Welcome to the site to both of you.

Now, what are you trying to do? And what is the truck doing?

Is it possible you're hitting the rev limiter?

I believe it is on there so that if your throttle gets stuck your engine will not blow when you put it in neutral. ie. reference the issue Toyota is having

Another reason for the rev limiter is so that morons cant do red line neutral drops.

What are you talking about?????????????? I never called you a moron.

If you ever decide that you want to convert & become a moron & do a red line neutral drop heres how you would do it:

Shift to neutral, hold the throttle on the floor & when the tach is redlined drop the trans into drive.

It can be fun until the trans blows up. Dont ask me how I know that.
