lucky save! My neighbor worked at an RTD bus shop that worked on 8v93 Detroit 2 stroke v8's supercharged and turbo. They had an alarm they would hit if this happened and it meant duck and cover it was going to blow he said 20,000rpm was possible before they grenade sending rods & pistons flying through the air.

Rusted out beat down 300d turbo 82' -- RIP

There are two thing's that can cause this. A stuck pump rack in the injection pump or leaky oil seal on the intake manifold causing the engine to run off of it own motor oil.

yep, always have a peice of plywood or similar handy to cut off the air. These wont run to 20,000 BTW, it might sound like it because of 2 stroke noise but 5000 RPM is max. it looks like he has modified his fuel pump (no governor... duh!!) and his mods worked,he got piles of fuel Big GrinBig Grin
another runaway.
But more cylinders you have the cooler they sound..
