MZ6666:
MY 1990 160k 200 TDi WILL ONLY REV TO 2750-3000rpm .IT FEELS STRANGLED/CHOKED, I'VE CHANGED THE FUEL FILTER AND CLEANED OUT THE SEDIMETER, NO CHANGE. IT STARTS FINE AND RUNS SMOOTH AT LOW REVS. IT'S ALSO THE SAME WHETHER FREE REVING OR UNDER LOAD.
ANY IDEAS ??
CHEERS,RICH

Paul:
A mate had this happen to him, He had emptyed his ash tray and
forgotten to put it back.... Guess where the RAC found it.... Yep
under the right hand pedal...

Have you checked for any obstruction under the pedal.?

ChrisW:
Has anything happened to the accelerator cable, the adjustor under the bonnet or something?

Wanderer:
semi blocked air intake?

V8MoneyPit:
Not sure how the throttle cable fixes at the engine end. It could have slipped. But this would mean you have loads of surplus pedal travel before anything happens, or the pedal will be further down than before.

Or maybe an air leak on the inlet side? Manifold, etc.
