Just keep driving. It's better this way.

Hello Mr Tripfag, I know it is hard for you to understand, but OP wasn't asking for anything, so you can bring your ego-stroking technical "advice" somewhere else without trying so hard to become the next know-it-all tripfaggot

>mfw the W123 diesels had an emergency stop lever for just this sort of thing

Thank God I never had to use it, but holy shit it was nice to know it was there.

What? How?

he forgot his handbrake maybe

in mine the Brake engaged light burnt out in the dash

I had a Vauxhall Movano van do this to me while I was driving. It was fucking terrifying and I've never seen an engine so completely destroy itself - there was a mark visible on the outside of the bonnet from where the coolant filler cap had blown off.

had to use this on my 200D W124 once, wasn't a runaway though and was quickly fixed.

wat

This one is the funniest because of the end

FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK

You sound like the real faggot here

Idk what you should do in a car with AT

Just natural selection, user

Yeah, it's mainly there to cut off fuel if one of the vacuum lines fail and don't shut off the fuel when you turn the car off. But it's still there if you ever get a runaway, and it's a HELL of a lot safer to kill the engine that way instead of trying to clog the air intake. It's even conveniently on the other side of the engine from the intake so your hands aren't anywhere near it.

>trying to choke a torque monster diesel engine that is running beyond all limits with your clutch and transmission

Oh wow.
Have fun getting half of the drive train flying right into your fucking face.

Can't believe the stupid faggots here trying to go under the hood, just put it in second and apply brake, this will simply stall the engine in anything that isn't massively overpowered.

>that's what actually ameritards believe

guess what, topguy?

the clutch wouldn't even get a grip at that massive speed and momentum. it would just go up in smoke.

also
>second
>not even the highest gear

you literally know nothing

You know, when posting as anonymous you should make it less obvious who you are

There's literally no other choice than trying to stop the airflow. Stuff your shirt into the fucking air intake and pray.

Tranny-stop a runaway will only work when you're lucky AND the engine is

Bullshit, you get wheelspin and unless the car has an american clutch, it will bite, your car will start going forward, you can then stall it. You can optionally shift upwards if there's room and stall it from fifth.

I became a true believer in the unkillable OM616 meme after that. 10/10 would recommend to people who don't know dick about car maintenance.

As you can even see in this thread, most people don't either realize this or try to do the transmission stop and of course fail.

Just look at the amount of retards ITT and you know everything.

>5th gear
Besides the fact that not all cars are manual, old trucks only had 3 or 4 gears. You would simply burn it out until it starts walking, in fact you now would have a runaway car.

I'd say the best options are to trim the fuel hose from the back, or disconnect the fuel pump cables if accessible. Maybe just pull out the fuse?

fuck, i would have just pushed it over and waited till it ran out of fuel, those guys are fucking nuts

You just got BTFO by this guy. Shut the fuck up tripfag cancer.

Nope, I agree. You sound like a real faggot here. Maybe go back to /v/?

>I'd say the best options are to trim the fuel hose from the back, or disconnect the fuel pump cables if accessible. Maybe just pull out the fuse?
No, the problem with a runaway diesel is that its reaction is so powerful it is literally sucking the fuel out of the tank on its own. Pulling the fuse won't do anything; you'd have to cut the fuel lines or block the air intake to stop it. You've got to break the chemical reaction in the engine.

>hear simulated machinegun fire at the end of the song

I may have forgotten to reattach the plastic protector properly

that car was truly possessed

Can this still happen with a common-rail diesel? I doubt the engine can overpower solenoid valves designed for 1000 bar pressure.

Plus if it's running on it's own oil like an old diesel could, that's not going to do shit

That won't do anything. It'll suck whatever inside and damage the engine. At this point the engine is fucked either way so better let it die naturally

Shut up trip nigger. You're on Veeky Forums, together we are one mighty faggot.

You're that guy who also suggest try to block intake, right?
When j did my diesel special course one kid almost lost his hand putting it near the intake while cranking. Engine at this point will eat everything and severely damage the chamber if you block it with something

wasn't even mad lol was a fun day

Ummm potato in exhaust? Or something that could choke it in its own farts?

I know the potato principle will not work because it will fly towards your face. But what about something that you could force it inside and keep it inside. Like a massive tampon. Or a dildo. IDK.

Or put a hose in max and fill the tank with water?

IDK I wonder.

Pull fuel pump relay and drink beer.

Not as bad as a runaway jet

All the time, except the car always stops in time

Maybe stop being so assmad?

you'd break the exhaust tubes.

Water in the intake would hydrolock the engine. Better just choke the air

FYI water in the fuel tank won't hydrolock the engine

I think you're right, since it would be injected in small amount

but i wrote 'in the intake' though

Yeah I thought you were implying the water in the intake came from the injectors

>main belt snaps
>no more water pump, alternator or power steeping
>drive home 30 miles like this because fuck it shitbox
>get home and shut the car off
>come back out an hour later
>street and gutter are full of coolant
Apparently it got so hot the water pump seal literally exploded and shot all the coolant out, replaced the water pump and it's still running fine to this day :3

Unlikely. Could be a number of things, including the vacuum plunger that shuts off fuel to the pump, or a blocked vacuum hose.

If it's worn rings, you should notice blue smoke coming out of the exhaust. Also, the exhaust will have an oily residue.
And it takes a lot of oil to keep an engine running so you will notice plenty of oil missing.

If you see blue smoke, try using heavier weight oil. Sometimes this is a good temporary fix.

Can happen to manualfags as well
I am a living proof

I have a similar story.

Replace thermostat and everything turns out fine.

Always double check your wiring, kids.

I've had 2 fords that do this

I had a Cavalier that did this. The key was also red hot.

Water likes to blow apart injector tips because of the molecule size. Best way to deal with a runaway is to grab a fire extinguisher, wait for her to catch fire, then empty the extinguisher on the ground. Only sure thing is a PASS. other than that just enjoy the show!

The key to my 1990 chevy celebrity starts my parents 1984 g20 van.

And vise versa. 70's, 80's and 90's GM ignition cylinders are notorious for this kind of shit.
