    The only diesel I ever witnessed running away was an Isuzu 4 cylinder that is in the NPR cab over trucks. It hit 5000+ (estimated) RPM before getting it shut down. Had to block off the intake manifold with a clipboard. Tried sucking it into the engine, left an imprint on the clipboard.

    We heated our shop with it. Oil temp and mixture are critical. Not to mention, the heater itself is kinda high maintenance.
