Revving at high speeds. 200 1989


A few quick thoughts:
The car needs to be started and condition evaluated. If it is indeed revving too high at high speeds it could be a fault in the OD system that is preventing the transmission from shifting from 3rd to OD. Common 240 problem. Could be a faulty OD relay, damaged/corroded OD wiring or far less likely a bad OD solenoid. Been there - My 90 240 had that problem. In my case, it was corroded wiring near the transmission.
