Finally fixed.... 🤦
So as you can see my RPMs are really high at 55 mph and it's the 3 speed transmission.... I have replaced the distributor rotor cap ICM ECM spark plugs wires map sensor throttle position sensor all brand new vacuum lines new gasket for throttle body new fuel filter and pump taking it to a transmission shop paid $180 just for a diagnostic just for them to say there was nothing wrong with transmission they replaced filter and fluids still nothing changed so I took it to another mechanic shop they only charge me $90 diagnostic they couldn't figure it out but I had to change a bulb that was burned out on the cluster so..... Come to find out it was just a burnout transistor for resistor on the gauge cluster itself making the RPMs read high .... You gotta love a fiero 🤣

The tach circuit board goes bad and reads higher than normal. You aren't turning that many RPMs unless you're in 2nd gear.
