Redline?

[RobBrodie]

Hey,
my car doesnt have a redline on the dial so was wondering if anyone could tell me where it should be? its a 1.2 8v (2002)
Also the rev limiter seems to be around 6k is that about standard? seems like quite a long way round!?

cheers!

Whats the redline/rev limiter on yours?

Shouldnt even consider a redline in a 1.2 mate, u will just end up breaking ur car

9,000rpm iirc?

Actually as above is what i meant haha, my old 1.2 used to get ragged all the way without the airbox on haha oh how we learn with age

Lol. Most I used to rev my old 1.2 was 4500 going any further was a bit pointless lol, it was faster to just change gear lol

my old 1.2 and 1.4 16v got raped everyday when i was a lot younger! I always took them to 6k. They'll be fine

This seems about right theres no power after 4k tbh. My car doesnt have a redline either btw rob.
