Which is better an engine that never sees 5000 rpm?
I still believe that an engine that never sees 5000 Rpm will last longer than one that often sees 5000 rpm. Oh I know that engines are better than they used to be, but high rpm is not good for an engine. I also know that I’ll get a lot of disagreement about this.
When does the RPM go back to normal?
The RPM will usually go back to normal as you accelerate the vehicle, but will increase again after you stop. This is definitely not a normal situation. If you are experiencing a rough idle or your RPM is running high, then there are a variety of reasons for why this could be happening.
What causes the engine rpm to go up when idle?
When the engine idles, there will usually be a misfire that you can feel just from holding onto the steering wheel. Furthermore, the RPM of your engine will be higher than normal when the vehicle is idling. The RPM will usually go back to normal as you accelerate the vehicle, but will increase again after you stop.
Can you run a car up to 6, 000 rpm?
If the engine were operating properly and properly maintained, running it up between 5,000 and 6,000 during acceleration would be no problem whatsoever. But you do not have an engine operating properly. You have an engine with unknown problems.

What should the RPM be on a Vega?
With the exception of engines plagued with design or manufacturing deficiencies (like my ’72 Vega was), a properly maintained engine should be able to be brought up over 5,000 RPM routinely while accelerating without problems and without prematurely wearing out.
Why is sudden acceleration bad for a car?
Sudden acceleration can be bad for cars because once your vehicle starts accelerating the RPMs will increase and your vehicle will do a mechanical over-rev.
What happens when car RPMs are running high?
When your car RPM is running high, it causes rough idling which means your engine may shake or vibrate while it is running. Your driving experience will not be comfortable. There are many reasons why the RPMs might be running high. The first thing to do is to check for bad spark plugs. If your plug is damaged it might cause your RPMs to run high.
Why does my snowmobile engine not Rev at 4000 rpm?
Sounds like your primary is engaging too soon, causing the engine to bog and power out. Either jack the back end up off the ground or take the belt off and see if the engine will rev freely or if it still won’t rev over 4000 RPM. This will tell you if it’s an engine power issue or possibly a drive train issue.
Can a six cylinder engine have low power?
A six cylinder engine running on only four cylinders would be a low power situation. The two cylinders that are not working would need to be checked, to see if the injectors are working. These vehicles have a history of…
How are high RPM’s good or bad for engines?
Major wear and failure comes from when you have higher loads, not high rpms. Opinion 2. Only run it up to 80% to red line. So if red line was 7000rpm, shift at 5600rpm. By not maxing out the Revs every shift you extend the life of the engine. We are just looking for opinions and feedback on this subject since it is related racing. Thanks!!!

Is there a problem with the Vortec 6000 engine?
Oil Pressure, AFM, and Oil Consumption I was hoping to avoid discussing this problem, but unfortunately it affects all Vortec engines, including the 6.0L. Chevy’s Active Fuel Management (“AFM”) is a fuel efficiency feature that shuts off 50 the engines cylinders under various driving conditions to improve gas mileage.
