Thats why all diesel engines should have a air shutoff valve on the intake.

You'll just grenade your trans or burn your clutch up. They are absolutely incapable of handling the torque output of a runaway diesel rotating assembly. Your best option is to abandon the vehicle if you do not have an air shut-off and seek shelter.

"Hit the brake, put it in high gear and let the clutch do the rest" Sadly no. A runaway diesel engine is burning the lubrication oil, not fuel. The governor that limits the engine speed is nolonger in control. The engine is putting out every single horsepower it can (way, way above the rated maximum) at revs that the rest for the machine can't handle. And when this has been running like this for a minute it's already overheated and things have been bent to the point that the engine is probably a write-off.

@@vinny142 That's not true. TBH I don't know much about trucks but if this was a car it would work 100%. No matter how many HP the engine has, the brakes are always stronger. Not just a little bit but siginficantly, like i.e. 500%. They are designed to stop the vehicle even if the engine is running at full speed and the clutch is stuck. The transmission can handle it without problems, worst thing that can happen is your clutch burning out. If you drive automatic transmission: Absolutely run away as fast as you can.

Your brakes are meant to resist the movement of your vehicle. Not the full power of your engine, if you hit the brakes in high gear and dump the clutch, even if your transmission doesn’t break, than you will very quickly burn your clutch. Most people don’t realize how quickly you can burn a clutch if you dump it like that

@@randallbowdre8167 "When activated, it opens exhaust valves to the cylinders, right before the compression stroke ends, releasing the compressed gas trapped in the cylinders, and slowing the vehicle." That's not going to do anything, a runaway is running on lubrication oil and after a minute it really doesn't need much compression to ignite.

put the truck in highest gear and dump the clutch without pressing the accelerator or brake dumping the clutch in high gear is too much for the engine to handle so 9 times out of 10 the vehcile will stall, saving your car from glowing red hot , seizing and potentially losing a few pistons..

They're all motors, an engine is just a specific type of motor. Bikes are most often referred to a motorcycles, rather than "enginecycles", Boats are more often referred to as motor boats, even though they most often use engines, and even the oil in the crankcase of an engine is referred to a "motor oil. If you drive a car, you're considered a "motorist".

"to flip the hood up and choke out the intake to save the truck. " A) Did you even watch the video? B) If they want to risk getting killed, sure. The engine is over-revving literally as hard as it can. It's not limited by the governor, it's going as fast as the pistons can physically move, _way_ outside of what there were designed for. It's basically a matter of time before one of those parts comes out through the engine block and into your face. C) It's not enough to choke it. The engine is (almost literally) red-hot, it barely needs any air at all to keep running. You'd have to completely, hermetically seal the intake. No air can get in anywhere or it will just keep running. And you'd need to do that for several minutes, while under the hood with a machine that can break open and shower you with boiling oil at any moment. No, a runaway is a situation where you grab your valuables and take the loss. Oh, and keep your fire extinguisher handy, one the engine blows you're going to need it to save the rest of your truck.
