    Nah, that is when a petrol engine keeps running after the ignition is switched off. Caused by a lean mixture, ignition timing advanced, hot carbon deposit in the combustion chamber etc...........

    This is a run away Diesel engine:

    Peugeot / runaway diesel engine suck oil in the middle of the street and died there. - YouTube

    You sure? I always knew dieseling as oil blow back into a hot cylinder, usually via fucked ring/s. Only way to stop is to starve it of air regardless of fuel system.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    That's a run away on a diesel. A petrol engine will not run on is own oil, but I have never tried it.
