8v92TA Emergency Shutdown
#6

While it is possible to get a runaway, the newer engines including yours have been designed to minimize the chances it will happen. On earlier designs of the DD 2-strokes there were a number of ways it could happen and all but the ones noted above have been eliminated. Even that one has been minimized by redesigned seals.

If you were to experience this very rare occurance, shift into nuetral, get off the road and get the fire extinguisher ready in case the engine blows. If the engine has run away to the point the brakes won't stop the coach, when you shift to nuetral the engine will Rev to the point of self destruction before you reach the shoulder.
