Question for a noob

[97-RS-]

I really dont know a whole lot about cars, so I feel kinda dumb asking stupid questions but any who,

I have a 97 automatic camaro v6, if i put it in neutral and try to rev the engine the rev only goes up a little over 4000 rpms, no matter how hard i floor it. It just bounces and its like its not getting enough air or somthing to give it more power...

I no this isnt a serious problem, but i feel like somthing may need to be cleaned or somthing. The car just goes up to 4000 rpms then bounces on it no matter how much i push the petal. And since its an automatic i know it doesnt matter as much, because i start out in drive, i just feel like somthing may be limiting the power my car can produce.

Any help would be appreciated, and im not sure if this is an easy fix or not, i dont know a whole lot about cars so thanks for understanding :D

Word. It's there so you don't blow the engine up.

rev limiter... it will do that in park or neutral if your not moving, but at least in my car if im rollin (in neutral) doin at least 25, i guess i never look if im goin that slow. It will go all the way up, tho i don't ever hit the actual 7k rev limiter, tho you can if you want too i guess. now we can say... /thread.
