2000 Honda Accord 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

2000 Honda Accord EX 2.3L cuts out at 4000 rpm's shift to the next higer gear and it is fine until I hit 4000 rpm's in that gear. It don't happen all the time but when it does it is like the engin shuts off until I shift to the next gear. Any ideas???

Hi dl8290,

This is known as RPM cut whereby the engine would cut off if a certain rpm is encountered. If the Check Engine Light is indicating, get a scan done to retrieve for trouble codes.

Was any repairs done prior to this occurring?

Get a scan done and see if any trouble codes are recorded.
