Default Revs to 2500 then cuts out?

My 91 4x4 cossie starts fine and idles fine but when you rev it to just over 2k revs the rev needle drops it backfires and engine cuts out?

Just changed the ect sensor but still the same!

Cheers for any help.

check the crank poistion sensor (CPS); give it the "wiggle" test, also check the crank pulley to make sure that is all in order; (notches in place etc)
