    For those of you that don't understand about Diesel's running away, you can turn the key off all day long but engine will not shut off. Once it has an outside fuel source it will run continuously. The only way to shut off a runaway diesel is to jam something in the air inlet so it chokes it out.

      some modern diesels have a valve that looks like a throttle body that closes when ignition is off. normally used to prevent a hard shake when you turn off the engine, but also cuts air preventing runaway if necessary. one example is the IZUZU design Z17DTH

But if the transmission is build strong enough for aggressive driving with the current engine, it should also be able to hold up for a sudden clutch release in the highest gear.

    • @casemodder89
      @casemodder89 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      never use the highest gear !
      the clutch will burn out and then you are left with no chances.
      use 3. or 4. fast engagement not dumping it.
      having the vehicle jump a few meters is fine and helps breaking the engine to transmission speed.
      not fully stomped brake padel... let the clutch engage at slightly pressed brakes and when it wants to roll off, (fully engaged clutch) stomp the brakes at full power to drag the engine below its idle speed so it cuts out.
      this way you might save the engine AND transmission. prolly need a new clutch after that, but a clutch is cheaper and easyer replaced then an engine and/or transmission obviously.

    Typically its the turbo oil seals that let engine oil into the pots via the inlet maifolds.It burns the same as diesel under compression and heat within the head.At this point even if you turn the engine "off" ie cutting diesel fuel it is at this point now just running off the oil leaking past the turbo compressor seals.You can only stop this by choking the air intake.Under high heat engine oil will actually detonate easier than diesel fuel and start to then draw in more air through the intake and runaway until the engine lets go.Thats why you get the thick black smoke as oil burns blacker and an engine that revs itself higher and higher perpetually.

    • @manuelcoronac
      @manuelcoronac ปีที่แล้ว

      okay. Share the solution to avoid run away. DRILL A SMALL HOLE (3/32 inch) under the air cooler. This will let out the accumulated oil inside the cooler. Don't worry about drilling. it will not cause a problem, it will be a small air leak. The turbocharged intake system has positive air pressure at all times. If there is an oil leak through the hole (drilled) you will be avoiding the run away. If no oil comes out, it means turbo in good condition. No need to worry! the hole made can remain, it does not represent a problem. it will even avoid the run away. It will act as a damaged turbo indicator

    I actually had a petrol 2 stroke bike run away a couple months ago, very scary :D It's a Aprilia RS50, I was driving around 85kph in 6th gear and somehow it went out of gear and started revving as high as it can. I stopped and turned off the ignition immediately but it kept revving, I'm assuming because it got too hot because it was running leaner than it should and the A/F mixture started to combust by itself because of the high compression and heat. I then closed the valve on the tank to stall it out, put in a high gear while risking my clutch and let off the clutch, fortunately it stalled.
    After I sat back and smoked a stress-cigarette, I tried to start it again and fortunately nothing broke and it was running fine afterwards but holy fuck did I piss my pants hahaha

    You can hold something on the air intake. An engine can only run with fuel and air. In case of a runaway Diesel engine, in most cases the engine burns engine oil, often from the turbo charger. Then you can‘t stop the „fuel“, but you can stop the air, by closing the air intake.

    Just to preface my question I don’t know much about engine specifics. But would it be possible to have some sort of fuel cut off for cases like these or would that cause more damage? The only reason I’m asking this is case you can’t get to the air filter to starve it and if it is better that simply destroying your transmission.

    what you see in the text of the video is wrong. a diesel runaway is basically when the engine starts running on its own engine oil. This is caused by worn piston rings or other causes. Since the compression of your diesel engine is high, the temperature of the air compressed from your cylinder rises and becomes hot until the engine oil reaches a flash point and ignites. option to stop this find something to prevent sucking air into the engine

    Please keep in mind that a lot of the staged "runaways" on u-tube are nothing more than a throttle wired full open. All this gives you is full governed engine speed and does not have the same level of danger encountered with a true runaway. A true runaway begins to draw on an unregulated fuel source and will hit speeds(RPM) that are truly catastrophic. A staged runaway runs at full governor until the u-tuber gets bored and shuts it off because it wasn't as entertaining as he had hoped. Don't believe every clown with a "Runaway Diesel" video.

    interesting to see it happen to two MK4 golf's:
    Their engines(usually the 1.9TDI PD) has a special valve that closes upon turning off the ignition. It's called the Anti-shudder valve(ASV) and is meant to stop the engine from sucking in air when the car is shut off to prevent that lumpy shaky stall most diesels have(as when you turn them off, they basically turn into a giant air compressor)
    when the engine runs away, all that's needed is to turn the ignition off; the ASV will close and stop any air from getting to the engine. Or, if that fails, you can pull the arm manually from under the bonnet(it's a small arm attached to a vacuum solenoid, left of the EGR valve) and the engine will be 100% starved of air.
    i must add(and this is probably why they ran away) that EGR deletes are very popular on the 1.9TDI platform. Unfortunately, the ASV valve is part of the EGR. when it's removed you lose this last resort valve in case of a runaway.

    • @gorak9000

      A diesel runaway is usually burning it's own lubricating oil as fuel.
      This is not in anyway regulated by the governor, which regulates the engine speed by metering diesel fuel.
      So runaways tend to do just that.
      Accelerate past their RPM tolerance and throw rods.

    The narrator speaking at the beginning” YOU CANT PREVENT A RUNNAWAY ON DIESEL TRUCKS. the only way is to keep your engine seals changed on a regular basis but even then if you get oil into the turbo it will just keep going with runaway. And the only way to stop it is to cover the AIR INTAKE. this will stop the engine. Use a bit of flat wood or a old jacket or jumper. Anything to stop air getting into the engine.

      This can happen at any time. Even a new engine (especially a turboed one) can runaway. Most of the time it's a bad seal on a turbo that feeds engine oil into the motor instead of diesel. So even a new motor can have this happen. This is why it's always important to check all seals, and exterior surfaces for leaks.

    If you didn't know why, it is because the super high psi fuel pump is mechanically driven for almost all diesel engines.

    Invariably its because it starts running on its own engine oil, so turning the key and fuel off does nothing - only way to stop it is A/ starve it of air B/Drop the clutch if a manual and clutch can withstand it C/ Wait till its engine oil runs out or finally D/ Engine blows up or siezes

      That is actually a stack fire. It can be caused by an engine running away, but it can also be caused by an overheating engine. If it's the latter then once the engine cools down the stack fire goes out.

      Yes apply the hand brake, select sixth gear (or the highest available) step on the foot brake and dump the clutch. Vast majority of the time this will stall it, and stop the runaway.

    The text does not make any sense, why would it be harder to access the ignition switch if the engine is running at high RPM?
    Furthermore, if a runaway occurs (particularly in a diesel engine with a mechanical fuel pump), it doesn't help to turn the ignition off since the engine may run from other "fuel" sources (such as engine oil or coolant)
    You can even disconnect the battery terminals and the engine would still run in the event of a runaway.

    Something else,most folks seem to think that it's always an oil seal in the turbo that causes runaways.
    If you get the Big fluffy gray cloud -like smoke, it's an oil fueled runaway. If you get black or blackish smoke with a nice lick of flames out the pipe, it's a fuel fed runaway. Caused by stuck injector rack or stuck open injectors.
    Shoot, gasoline engines can runaway too. We had a diaphragm split in one carb of a twin carbed 4 cylinder honda 350 and had a half assed runaway til it blew a spark plug out!
    Shits been runnin away long before turbos.
    Best most reliable,not to mention safest, way to stop one,is a CO2 extinguisher straight into the intake. Snuffs em right out,and won't cause
    any extra damage like an ABC dry chem extinguisher will
