@ourhomeplaceproject: Our Kubota L3901 suddenly started racing out of control. Steam poured from the exhaust, oil started leaking, and now we’re afraid the engine may be a total loss. We’re just getting started building our family homestead, and buying a new tractor definitely wasn’t part of the plan. This is one of those reminders that homesteading rarely goes exactly as expected. You adjust, pivot, and keep moving forward. Has anyone experienced this with a Kubota? Was it repairable, complete engine replacement, new tractor? 😬 @kubotausa @kubotatractorcorporation Any insight would be appreciated. #Kubota #KubotaTractor #OurHomeplaceProject #TractorRepair #L3901

Don’t own a diesel if you don’t know about a runaway diesel

this can happen to any diesel engine no matter if its on a tractor or a pickup truck to a semi truck. when the turbo leaks oil into the engine it causes the engine to do this. its called a runaway engine. only way to stop it is to fill the breather up with rags or something to cut the air flow off.

Highest gear, both brakes hard, dump the clutch. Or hop off and close the fuel shut off. Or stuff your shirt into the air intake. Heck, shoot a fire extinguisher into it... Anything is better than standing there watching it self destruct.

either used road fuel and the injector stuck open or somebody changed the oil and didn't drain both sides of the oil pan. either way that engine is toast

New phone, who's this? :
Engine need Fuel, Air and spark to run. Instead of blocking the air or shutting off the fuel, you decided to video?

Turbo charger seal leaks oil into the fuel system. Normally what causes that.

a fuel shutoff won't help when it is running on motor oil, you have to block off the air.
