Engine RPM Limiter
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Pickup, 2005 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2005 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Excursion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The powertrain control module (PCM) limits the engine RPM by cutting off fuel whenever the engine RPM limit is detected. The RPM limits are as follows:
- E-Series - 4,000 RPM
- Excursion - 4,000 RPM
- F-Super Duty - 4,000 RPM
The purpose of the engine RPM limiter is to prevent damage to the powertrain.
