Folks,

When using the term "Runaway Diesel" it is as stated ...a complete lack of control of the engine, and a continual acceleration until engine death .....generally this condition is caused by bad rings, or valve guides, and the engine consuming it's lube oil as fuel.....not a stuck FI Pump.....the FI Pump has an internal governor that should prevent any overspeeding of the engine.
