[Hamaif]

hey guys i own a honda civic 1997, i am facing an issue which is my car rpm limiter i guess so, my car rpm goes 6.5k some time 7k and but it wont do the rev limit thing.. like when i give a full gas in neutral it goes 6 or 7k but does not do the knocking thing or locking.. any idea what problem i am facing.

Sorry, it's hard to understand what you're asking.

Automatic or manual transmission?

It sounds like you think the ECU should be programed not to let you go passed redline RPM, but its not suppose to. Stock engines will typically have a speed limiter and not an RPM limiter being that its up to the drivers tactics to decide how high to rev before shifting. Limiting speed is a bit more of a safety restriction depending on the country, to my understanding. I you're in Pakistan so perhaps Hondas there have different restriction.
