@ukmotomo: On the way back from seeing a mate and came across a car absolutely billowing smoke 😳 Turned out to be a full-on diesel runaway, with paramedics blocking the road. Asked if we could suffocate the exhaust to stop it, no luck. In the end the engine took one last deep breath… and died on its own. Moments you don’t expect to stumble across on a ride 🏍️💨 #MotorbikeLife #crash #fire #smoke #bikertok
it annoys me tbat people aren't taught enough how to stop a runaway diesal

It’s got a knackered turbo and it's running on its own oil. Easy to stop. 5th gear, handbreak up, foot on brake and stall it. Sorts the job👍

It looks like the turbo seal had failed and its burning the engine oil.
You cannot stop it.

My car did this to me 2 days ago. I going 70mph on dual carriageway when it happened and only had the car 2 weeks and done less than 150 miles . Terrifying isn't the word.

Forgive me as I know nothing much about cars but why does it need to be stalled, Can’t you just turn the engine off? I feel like I’m asking a really stupid question 🤷🏼♂️

Most diesels since 2009 shut the throttle body when taking the key out of ignition which kills all air supply

Love all the tik tok comment mechanics that have seen like one video of a guy in America stop a diesel run away on a crate engine by clogging the turbo or somth saying “oh just block the intake” as if there isn’t an airbox and crap in the way” best bet is to just get out of the car and face that it’s broken😂
