> I had an International DT466 runaway on me. It blew the turbo and started running on it’s own motor oil. I was driving it down the road when it lost power and started smoking like Hell. Pulled to the side of the road and ended up shoving an old pillow case that I had as a rag in to the intake. Sucked it right out of my hand like in the video. A couple of minutes later the local fire dept showed up…Someone called them because of all the smoke!

I haven’t had any run away on me yet so I’m overdue. Was close with one of my tdis but i was paying attention when the turbo blew and shut it down right away.
