That poor little single cylinder generator was not a runaway. Those geniuses put gasoline in the fuel tank of a diesel engine. They could have saved that generator if they had immediately shut it down, cleaned the gasoline out the fuel system, and refilled it with diesel fuel. Instead, they just watched it burn up and stood there making remarks like: " The muffler is turning to plasma." and "It's brand new." That little generator would have been a clean, reliable, source of electricity with excellent fuel economy if those guys had just put the correct fuel in it.
most people are unbelievably stupid
How does it even run on gas? Or is it not like gas cars that can't run on diesel.
@@ThatOneGuyWithTheEye Lower compression with a fuel air mixture ignited by a spark vs high compression air that creates high temperature heat with a squirt of fuel both methods will ignite gasoline for gasoline very volatile.
@@ThatOneGuyWithTheEye 'sacly. The claim that you can run a diesel engine on petrol is complete bogus. Back in the days, some petrol was mixed into diesel for keeping the gunk fluid at very low temperatures, but there still the diesel started the controlled combustion.
Pretty sure that's not possible. There are no spark plugs in a diesel engine, since the combustion of diesel relies on high pressure instead of a spark (the main reason that runaways occur in the first place). Gasoline needs that spark in order to ignite. So putting gasoline in a diesel engine will cause it to just.....not run at all. Even if you started the engine with diesel and then poured gasoline in, it would eventually just shut off.
Some modern diesels now have a butterfly valve in intake line, this normally used for assisting with exhaust gas recirculation, but if an over rev is detected, this valve shuts completely to starve engine of air
That's what I was hoping they'd start doing. Maybe compare the TPS (throttle position sensor) with the revs. If the TPS is at a low value, revs are high, close butterfly valve.
The flames out of the stacks is impressive !
Pickup truck at 4:14 went from stubborn to crazy like a detroit 2 stroke
For anyone wondering on how to quickly stop a diesel runaway: Your best bet is to local the air intake and completely bloke it off with some type of solid surface or lots of heavy cloth in the case of a turbo. Another way to prevent your diesel from shredding itself, if you have a standard, put that baby into it's overdrive gear and dump the clutch. Better to risk your tranny then your motor and everything near it. If all else fails, you can turn off your fuel supply on some vehicles in which I would check your vehicle. As a preventative step, install a automatic / manual fuel or air supply cutoff for the fastest shutoff, which will prevent a runaway almost every time. A automatic air supply cutoff usually detects when the engine rpm becomes too high, they usually only cost $500 - 700 rather then the 3k or so for just the engine block itself let alone any other damage.
turning off fuel does nothing. Normally it's burning over filled crank case oil, or turbo oil which is leaking into the intake.
Its actually quite scary how many diesel owners have no clue about diesel engines.
once its in that state just leave it. the engine is damaged beyond repair anyways from the heat damage caused unless you can stop the runaway just as it starts. not worth the injury if that thing explodes in you'r face.for a now junk block.
I know a lot of them one put gasoline in the trick by accident he blew the engine up quick I seen this with my own eyes engine cost him about 15,000
@@gogereaver349 it had to override the governor if the could catch in time they could close off the air filter and let it strave for air until it shuts down
The engine is named after its creators, Shaq and Vin.
8:27: that truck went straight into supercar territory
nope the sheer heat damage melts the entire thing internally its all rpm pretty much no torq.
We used to do runaways for fun at mechanic Christmas parties and take bets on how long they’d last. Good times.
I didn’t know it was such a common thing. Grew up with family trucking company and never once saw this.
Wtf guys, just choke the air intake and the engine will stall ! !
They are not that smart
@@Bill-mr2oo obviously !
How about the red cummins that they choked the air and it still went.
Do it let me know what you learned
The yuppie at the end was clueless
He really couldn’t tell something was wrong with that generator? It’s turning the muffler into plasma that’s a fire hazard like it was a damn feature of the unit my lord
He didn't sound like the sharpest tool in the shed. I wouldn't be surprised if he put petrol instead of diesel in it, or it didn't have any oil in it.
I had a dodge truck turbo went bad i had no idea it would do that it ran away on me it had to rev up to 6 or 7 thousand rpms for like 5 mins till it trowed rods cam was on the ground under the truck it broke the trans in haft long ways crazyest shit ive ever seen that was 25 years ago i will never forget it !!
The little red generator was not a runaway, it was a moron who bought it brand new and didn't put oil in it. I've seen the original video.
Easiest way to shut down a runaway is clog the intake pipe with a towel or a shirt something along those lines.
Make sure you hold on to it!🤦
Starve the cylinders for air the pressure will drop thus in turn will stop the diesel from igniting.
Used to know an guy who had an old Ford tractor, it would always start but would never shut off.
He would just pop the air cleaner and covered the intake pipe with his hand until the engine stopped running.😅
r/ihadastroke
just walk away the heat damage has aruldy coused way to much damage. you are only risking injury for a now junk pice of scrap.
Except if it's something like valve guides, I choked the intake on one acting odd because it was taking like 30 seconds to shut down from an idle speed.
And it revved back up.
After it shut off, I disabled it.
Definitely a runaway waiting to happen.
And no it wasn't the turbo because it was NA
give yourself a hickey 😂
I've heard of that solution of starving a diesel for air and tgey would shut off ! 👍👍
90% of these vids are very old replays
The land rover at the end was the crown jewel. The idiot that buys one of them, then this happens. GLorious.
Most personal diesel tucks in the USA roll down the road smoking like this, so I wouldn't know if it was in run away.
ive always wondered what kind of power numbers one of these runaways would produce on a dyno.
The torque actually drops so it might be a disappointment!
@@ludicrous7044 yeah sadly i figured the torque would drop some as your surely losing compression. but the sheer amount of rpms some of these turn compared to their normal rpm range. it would see the diff in number between healthy and 12k rpms. im almost willing to bet for a brief while the hp does increase. mainly just do to rpms.
pry look like most 4 cylinder dynos. high hp and almost no torque.
@@chehystpewpur4754 the heat damage from those insane rpms melt the pistons down. its why any attempts to save one in full runaway it just a wast of time.
@@gogereaver349 yeah i got that but your still missing the point.
@@chehystpewpur4754 no I'm not unless you stop it as it starts the motor is trash. So running around trying to stop it where It can blow up anytime is not worth it
The only bad idea is to spray starting fluid on a diesel engine, because the fluid can enter the fuel intake, thus mixing it with the fluid. That is a straight up bad for the entire engine.
Detroits have a manual pull flap to shut it of. It should be mandatory. Probably cost $20
Most diesels do but the owners don't know where the phucin thing is!!😮
Yea, who reads owners manuals,...Or changes their oil?@@ludicrous7044
A runaway isn't running on diesel, it's burning its own lubricating oil from the sump / crankcase
I agree, but the pull flap shuts off the o2@@David-ki6jq
@@fladave99 oh ok. Every day is a school day. 👍
So, are these motors any good after a runaway ? Some are obviously done for, but if it gets shut down quick will it survive?
probably not. usually their pretty severely damaged. most runaways suck the oil from the crankcase and burn that and that means no lubrication. sometimes you get lucky but its not worth the risk to me. just like when an engine over heats and the block or heads can warp this can do the same thing from the heat and being well above the rpm range the engine should run at.
If the engine is still in good condition, here's a trick to fix this. Sometimes it doesn't work, but if you have a rag and a jug of diesel fuel, dampen the rag with the fuel and put it into the air intake, it will fire right up. And before you do all that, try to fix what caused it to runaway.
It really depends on the lifetime of the engine and the build quality. Regardless a couple of seconds higher than the rev limiter isn't going to cook the engine, but I'd say anything more than 10 seconds and it's gone. The bearings will be shot, all the fluids are cooked, the rings will be damaged and the connecting rods if they haven't broken yet are now damaged and weakened. Plus the valve train will be broken too.
Runaway diesel happens common for one or 2 reasons
The engine runs on its own hot black sooty blood called used engine oil from a bad turbo or bad head gasket
If a turbo goes, the high pressure oil that lubicates the turbo bearings (and what ever sort of seal or clearence that keeps oil in there only) the bearing/seal fails oil gets pushed into the input turbine and gets atomized, sucked in and burnt
The other possible way is an engine with overhead lubrication and the head gasket that seals the head to the block leaks oil into one or more cyclinders and starts running on engine oil
Or the fuel rail gets stuck wide open
The semi truck with flames remind me of something that straight out of mad max
10:10 they are just chilling like: dude i don't care.
Basically a vehicle version of a seizure
Unfortunately with runaway diesels you only have 2 options.1 get close and stop it from taking air or stand let it run till it blows. There is a third option of setting the brakes and putting it in gear but results differ. If you take option one make sure to use something solid,NEVER use your hand
Some of the old Detroit 2 cycle diesels had an emergency shutdown flapper that would cut off the air to the engine. Those usually worked pretty well. Some of the old N series Cummins engines had a compression release that would hold the intake valves open. Those would instantly kill a runaway engine. Old time diesel mechanics would sometimes have a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher ready to spray into to the air intake of a runaway engine. That also was a very effective way of starving a runaway engine for air.
none of them are worth the risk if the runaway isn't stopped before it starts. because even if you stop it when you tare it down everything inside will be melted due to heat. at the end of the day you are buying a new motor no matter what.
Also put it in a very high gear not low gears
the one at 5:40 tries that, putting it in gear with breaks on, didnt work for him, and i think he blew either gearbox or drive shaft with how that chassie and frame twisted and buckled lol.
Does this make the e9x 335d into a potential bandit? You could say it was a "ruinaway"?
I liked the Harbor Freight generator
As an american, diesel engines are very common here. (CAT, & Cummins.)
So once you block the airflow and shut it down, how do you REPAIR a runon motor?
I think the tractor at 4:40 busted its block. Hope everyone was okay!
6:08 I really hope that driver bailed! Holy cow! I was like, bro are those flames coming out them pipes??? Wtf
It almost looks like someone put gasoline ⛽️ in it! A possibility. Cool flamees!
Or the turbo is shot.
turbo is shot, it won't run on gas...@@cpeast
Once again why I’m a petrol guy.
It would be nice to have a CO2 tank to flood into the engine to quench the combustion, in addition to a sliding "gate" type intake air shutoff.
Maybe you save the engine, maybe you don't, but you get it stopped quickly so your chances are better, and you minimize the heat build up that could cause a fire and burn the whole rig to the ground.
Obviously, those things aren't common because this problem isn't all that common, either. But with what a good tractor costs these days, I wonder if you couldn't get a break in your insurance having systems like that installed.
I wonder if the engine brakes on the exhaust would slow it down 🙄
Because the Jake Brake releases engine compression, it should vent all the combustion gas into the exhaust, which would prevent it from adding RPM to the crank, but would spool up the Turbo, unless there's also a wastegate open to bypass it.
have you ever tried plugging exhaust on arunaway good f en luck
When u dont know and it happens its scary as hell ive been there done that and im a gear head i was 15 the first time it happened!
runaway diesel
Oil leak at the turbo is the most common cause for this. It's my biggest fear with my Duramax. And it's not common, so I'm not worried about a lot… :-)
I'm not well versed in Diesels, the last one I had was a 5 year old 1980 VW Rabbit, BUT would it do any good to put in a fuel line cut off? Just wondering
generally no. many run away engines are running off the oil supply. cutting the fuel could help if it was an injector but thats the only time.
It couldn't howt!! Don't want your wabbit to run away!!😁🐇
you see this alot more in turbo diesel not the old na diesel. turbo seal fails in a way allowing oil to flow into the cylinders and runaway. other things can cause it like blown shaft seals.
No.
No
Yay humans
Train has smoke and Soot. Will it have fire?
next time i get busted for doing a burnout ima just gonna say to the cop its a diesel runaway mate chill
👍🙋♂️🙋♂️
I have question....what happens if it's in gear and you deliberately stall it ...will the engine stop spinning??
Has anyone ever tried to plug up the exhaust pipe.. Anybody know if that will work or not
It would suck if u travelled miles on the hi way and ur car starts to do this 😂😂😂
I don't know why people don't just stall their manuel diesel engines, like all those big trucks are surely not running an automatic transmission, so why not just put the park brake on in 4th gear foot on the brakes and let out the clutch fairly quickly 😅
Go out to your car, floor the gas pedal, and then try to stall it 🙄
@@David-ki6jq go out to your car and try to take off at full rpm in top gear with the hand brake on 😮 and only a diesel 😉.
most im screaming cut intercooler rube
A diesel runs away on crank case oil , not fuel due to poor piston ring sealing.
1:52
Never seen a locomotive do that before.
Most of the time a fuel shut off won't work diesel engines can run on the motor oil in the crank case. You need a air shut off to choke them off no air can't run. Thke the air canister or breather off so you can get to the intake manifold and use something that is solid enough to cut off the air, by putting it over the air intake on the manifold.
Sooo..... Turning off the ignition wont work?
What's the oil temp reading? 😂😂😂
Original or Crispy
does old rusty say Walla Walla Washington on it? grew up there.
That BCRail locomotive at 1:50 likely isnt even a runaway. I'd wager it's a blown compressor.
instead of helping, you film!! This is what they teach here in Europe!! gear 4 on and clutch up!!!
Usually it is sucking oil out of the pan. Stick a sock in it
AIR SHUTOFF VAVLE
ALL diesel owners should know where the fuel shutoff valve is-Their in different places!
Because it's not running off it's fuel it's running off its own oil
No, that is not the reason, read comments here and educate yourself on the only 2 solutions
It need some disc brake in the engine🫤
1:50 so trains do runaway
Just put a small inline valve in and you can manually turn the fuel off
That probably would not help. Most of the time those runaway diesels are burning the lubricating oil from the crankcase. Cutting off the fuel will not help. The most common cause of a modern diesel running away is a bad turbocharger seal leaking lube oil into the intake manifold. The old Detroit Diesel engines would often run away if the fuel racks in the injectors were stuck open. In that case, yes, cutting of the fuel would stop the engine.
Dumb question but what it you disconnected the battery because isn’t that what heats the glow plugs ?
@@KronosOpie Diesel engines only use glow plugs as a starting aid in cold weather. Once the engine is running, the glow plugs are turned off and not in use. In a runaway situation the engine is already hot and burning its lubricating oil. So, the glow plugs, if the engine has them, are completely irrelevant.
@@KronosOpieyep, dumb question.
Lmao, wrong fuel in the diesel generator
It's almost like they should have an air shut off
Some of these videos are really old.
Why don't they come with a safety choke .
Shuting the fule down won't stop it you have to stop the air it will run off the oil tell it self desructs you need to shut off the are if you are going to mess with deseles have a steel plate to put on the intake to shut off the air.
just why do people not care about their engines? even if its a old car they dont use they can sell it and not just destroy the engine
At 4:45 WTH , Looks like that was on purpose !
Using starting fluid on a diesel is a bad idea.
@@HaydenSansingHe means the tractor
Engaging a high gear and flipping the clutch with brakes on (10:02 min.) to stall a runaway diesel is no smart move. Clutch, gearbox and drivetrain possibly get killed as well while the engine in most cases is toast anyway.
I'd never own a diesel, can't stand the smell plus there a pain in the ass to work on
In case of run away engine , put vehicle in a high gear and apply the brake release clutch , incase brakes fail find a tree or other suitable large object to push against ,, wheels spinning ? place in natural and run run away video result for insurance claim . Was it only the John deer that blew
egr delete
What a shame
Diesels run away from using oil from engine to run. Not fuel.
3 words, Positive. Air. Shutoff.
Greta's nightmare!
Exactly why older cars without a damn brain that run it but yours is the only vehicle I want make no mistake that was a computer
Why not pull the wires from the glow plugs an fuel line if you can
First glow plugs are only used for starting a cold engine second it's not running off of fuel it's running off its own oil
No talking during film annoying
You have people that know nothing about diesel engines
these AI voiceovers are so annoying
There should be a fuel shut-off on these vehicles! It should be mandatory for any diesel!
You need an air shut off!
Then it will just suck oil from somewhere else and keep running if you cut the fuel.
Top quality American crap
There's too much narrator voice that made me not wanna watch the video anymore. Can find these same clips just by scrolling through TH-cam a bit. No one likes the robot voices if you gonna use it use it Sparingly.
If you disconnect the battery and unplug the alternator those engines will stop running
You don't know how diesel runaway is caused do you
@@cjgordon22 yes I do. I own a diesel. And the worst thing to do is throw a fucking rag in a goddamn turbo that's the worst thing
@@cjgordon22
Almost all diesels have an electrically operated fuel shutoff solenoid and electric fuel lift pumps. Others like the turbo diesels use an electronic injection pump. As long as these engines are getting air, fuel and electricity they will continue to run. Cutting off the electricity to these engines should stop them
@@user-fp6li1vi9g not when the turbo seals are blown and it's running off of its own oil
maybe not click bait, wont watch enough to know. AI voiceover? fuck no. really tired of AI
this is why diesel engines suck and they stink too.
All you have to do is shut off the air to the engine it's that simple only one of these videos did that
