ok. so i have a 1995 Toyota Tacoma (http://www.truckforums.com/forum/#) with a 2.7L i-4 engine. today when i was driving, i started to get on it pretty good. not bad but that truck redlines at 5200 RPM's. the highest i had it today was 5000 for a 1/16 of a second. is that bad for my motor (http://www.truckforums.com/forum/#)? it didnt go over the red line. and also, when i start out in first, it tends not to wanna go and hesitate. any tips??? thanks

I'm sure it doesn't apply to all vehicles and anything under redline is definitely safe. so for split seconds that high i wouldnt worry about it

Since it just went close to the red line for a few seconds, I don't think you should be too concerned of it ruining your engine. Just don't do it too frequently though. :D
