The sprinter is going to limp mode. It could be anything from a cracked resonator to a transmission fault. Check the resonator for hairline cracks and the hoses for tears or pinholes.

SOURCE: My Car Started To Surge At 60mph and wouldnt go any higher

Common problem with the Intrepid, i had a '99 and a '04 do this to me and it was the Transmission output shaft speed sensor both times.

eventually when the problem gets worse you will get codes for the sensor as well as codes like "2nd gear ratio incorrect". It can cause a lot of strange problems like shifting into the wrong gear. Sometimes it will also try to shift into third gear when leaving a stop sign causing it to rev high and then drop into first gear.

The dodge guys charged $90 bucks to put one in for me and i did the other myself, located on the drivers side of the transmission near where the cv axle comes out. there are two sensors there, one is Vehicle Speed and the Other is output speed. I believe they have a different number of wires so just match up your new one.

I have a 1966 corvette with a Muncie 4 speed trans. It is a 327/300 hp car.I am turning 3000 rpm at @ 60 mph. Can I put a 3:08 rear end in this car with out hurting it ?

you probably have 4:11 now gives you lots of power with lots of torc the 3:08 will give you less rpm at 60mph save you gas on highway

Runs 2100rpm at highway speeds

a transmission problem. (slip>?)
why not?
1: check all fuse with a meter, in both fuse boxes.
2: check ATF levels by the book, not guessing or using engine oil methods !
3: then SCAN it. yes, do so , not scanning now, misses the boat.

no year stated, wow...... now that does make this a hard row to hoe.

2002 Grand Cherokee engine revs

Since you have a Laredo this should be where it is going in and out of overdrive. The reason is because 60mph is right at the end of the power range before going into overdrive. The other reason on your idle fluctuation is due to the cooling fan kicking on and off. Higher RPM's occur as the engine is trying to cool back down after reaching optimal temp. I due have a partial solution if you want better performance out of your jeep and will help MPG. You can replace the spark plugs and air filter for both mpg and performance. Local auto store should be able to recommend platnium or iridium plugs for your jeep. But K and N is the best air filter to replace it with. It will cost around 50 dollars but it has a lifetime warranty and is cleanable. If you decide on new plugs make sure to spend a few extra bucks and get some with a 3 to 5 year warranty. Just replace them before the warranty is up. Stephen
