Elevated RPMs while driving

[cjwhite]

My son's FZJ80 revving higher than normal when he's on the highway.

Idle seems fine (smooth and normal), but he's now pushing 3k RPM at 65 mph - probably around 700-800 more than usual during normal commute.

Trans doesn't appear to be slipping or anything like that.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Does he have the PWR button engaged?

You should have heard the scream that just went off in my head...

I don't know, but I'll have him check. My mind went right into catastrophe mode...

Thanks.

Not the PWR button on the console, but the OD button on the side of the shift knob.

His OD is not engaged.

The PWR button only changes shift points.
