RPM question
 
What should the RPM gauge be at between 70- 75 mph?

big_boss2010 05-09-2004 10:22 PM

not for sure i think bout 4500? never looked

ssesc93 05-09-2004 10:22 PM

my car is around 2000. i dont know about yours though.

PontiacDad 05-09-2004 10:23 PM

I would guess between 3500-4000rpm at 70mph.
Thats assumeing you were in over drive?

big_boss2010 05-09-2004 10:24 PM

yeah are you running in over drive

SSE14U24ME 05-09-2004 10:27 PM

I am always in overdrive cuz everything is highway. My car runs abaout 2500 rpms and wanted to make sure it was about right.

big_boss2010 05-09-2004 10:30 PM

like i said not for sure on yours but mine runs about 4000-4500

SSE14U24ME 05-09-2004 10:33 PM

isn't 5000 like redlining it? I was always told not to let mine hit 5000

big_boss2010 05-09-2004 10:42 PM

i dont think that is redlining on mine.

Somewhere around 2400, I believe. Anything much higher is a problem with your transmission.
