Sounds like fuel or air starving.

you talking about the fuel control solenoid? don't know of anything else that could be called the engine control relay.
if so bet you got air in system.
This is the part number to what I replaced. 6253541M91 It started off with my alternator going out. Replaced it. Then the accessory fuse kept blowing and I traced the short down to the engine control relay that I replaced. I’ve drained the fuel tank, changed fuel filter, blew out all fuel lines, bled air out of fuel system and still can only rev to 2000 rpm. I know there is not much to these engines but it’s got me puzzled.

oh that, sorry missed that. iirc that only controls signal to the fuel solenoid depending on key position.
with the key on engine off is the pickup pump chattering as it should?

as far as I know the solenoid powered by that relay is either open or shut, no in between so can't see that relay short messing with that. fact it comes up to 2K rpm leads me to think thats ok.
assume the tank/line work was done due to this new problem of only hitting 2k correct?
did you crack lines on pump and injectors to bleed ?
just for grins remove fuel cap see if works fine, prob won't matter though. maybe remove air filter also. this checks tank venting and for restricted airflow.

Yea I cracked top of I injectors to make sure no air. Not sure if the factory fuel pump isn’t putting out enough fuel to keep up due to an internal issue in the pump. It’s only rated to put out .01 gpm. Any restriction with that may be part of the issue. I’ll try a few things and see what happens.
