    If it revs past 6000 rpm turn it off! The pistons will destroy your engine ridiculously fast. You probably already have some damage from just that.

After my 03 jeep liberty warms up to normal, the idle begins to fluctuate until it goes down to 500 rpms than wants to shut off but revs itself up to stay on, now when I am in park and rev the rpms up it...

It's not a gas pedal, it's an air pedal. Fuel injected engines are all about air flow at idle. take off the intake snorkel and check out your throttle body. You may just need a new throttle position sensor, or the Idle solenoid that regulates idle air flow is stuck. The computer will try to compensate, but it can only do so much.

I have a 2008 Ford Escape, 3.0L V6. I just had a Super 40 flowmaster professionally installed today. I never tried revving my engine in neutral before, but I tried today so I could hear what the new...

Hello there,

This is a normal operation, all your doing is hitting the rev limiter. It's there to protect the engine from over revving. The Powertrain Control Module or PCM cuts fuel to the engine intermittently to keep the engine from revving past a predetermined RPM when in "neutral", and in "park" if it's an automatic. Just in case something like a foreign object or a small child or animal were to inadvertently depress the accelerator pedal and rev the engine too high and damage the engine in result. I hope this info helps, and just for peace of mind, I am a Master Certified Ford Technician. Enjoy your new exhaust!! I'm sure it sounds great!!

Oil light stays on

You need to put the key on and push the gas pedal to the floor three times within five second to reset the oil life light.Some g.m.'s have a reset buttom in the fuse panel that needs to be pushed first and some don't.Check the owners manual under change oil for your specific year car.
