The Engine cuts out if the RPMs go over 3,000
When I go over 3,000 rpm's the car cuts out. It doesn't completely die but stutters along. Speed doesn't matter as it happened to me at 60 mph and 20 mph. ZAny Ideas what I could be looking at?

I'm sure you have a check engine light on, and you can scan for the codes. But my bet is you have a misfire. So replacing the spark plugs and ignition coil on the cylinder that has the code might fix the issue. An example would be if it was cylinder #3, it would be P0303. Have an auto part store scan for the codes, it's free.
