Does anyone know if the factory installed a speed control or RPM limiter on 88 C$'s. Mine runs very rough, and seems to be misfiring at
85+. Any suggestions for resolving?- posted

No governor on that baby---it should be loafing at 85 & 90. Grade of gas? Plugs & wires? HEI coil, distributor & module? The long shots: Knock sensor is signaling the Electronic Spark Control to retard the spark.
Does it feel like it's leaning out? Fuel pressure slump?
As these cars age, we hit 'strange' problems like primary ignition wiring faults and failure to pull enough ignition current. I'd not expect that to show up at 85 but it might be worth a look if everything else checks out.
maybe stopped up gas filter ?
No rpm or spped limiter was installed.....check the following...
Fuel filter fuel pump in tank filter fuel pump fuel injectors spark plugs spark plug wires dist module egr valve egr valve control module
One of those should be your problem..check in the order shown...
Or maybe the cat has a hair ball choking it off???
ROFLAO!
