>>>I'm a bit confused. It seems that there are two schools of thought, when it
comes to runaways. One seems to say that runaways are due to an inability to
regulate the delivery of fuel, through the injectors. The other says that a
runaway is caused by the engine sucking lubricating oil from the sump,
through the turbo, and into the intake, thus providing an excess supply of
combustible "fuel" to the engine. There was even mention of excess fuel
being provided by an external source, such as a leaking natural gas
pipeline.
All that is possible. My "possible?" solution would only take
care of an injection pump fault.
Not an oil leak in a turbo, excess engine blowby or hazardous "air?"
intake.
Just playing with a few ideas.
