Emergency shut down mod
There is only one sure fire way to shut down a runnaway diesel and
that is to shut off the air. Since it is caused by either oil or fuel
getting sucked into the intake past worn or blown turbocharger seals
then the only control you have is thru the air that it needs to keep
running. If this ever happens the quickest way to shut it down if
the emergency shut off does not work is to aim a fire extinguisher at
the air intake and give it a blast.
