So i just recently traded for a 92 hatch with a B18C1. It supposedly has a "skunk2" ecu. Anyways, when you get on it, sometimes it will kick in like a limp mode and set the revlimiter to 3500 RPMS. It only seems to do it in the lower gears, has never done it in 4th or 5th. It doesnt do it all the time either. But anyways, it throws the CEL on, and all i have to do is turn the key off and back on and its back to normal. Any help appreciated!

My integra did that, it would set the rev limiter at 4800, but the car/ecu was bone stock, i would turn it off and it wouldnt do it anymore..
