    4k rpm then sputter, choke, backfire!

    I just bought my first 4runner, 1998 sr5 4x4 with 110k. Problem i have is when you hit 4 grand, its done, starts sputtering, backfire noises from intake, chokes out completely. All the way up to 4k it runs strong, then WHAM! instant brickwall. Does anyone have any clue what does this?
