Overspeed Rev Limit

The PCM does not allow the engine to exceed the rev limit. Refer
to Specifications to determine this engine's RPM limit.
Upon reaching the rev limit, the Engine Guardian System activates
the ignition/warning light. If the operator does not reduce engine
speed within five seconds, the Engine Guardian System reduces
available engine power.
To reset the Engine Guardian System protection:
1. Completely reduce throttle for two to three seconds.
2. Re‑engage the throttle. If the engine does not respond, repeat
step one.
