[Vwdiesel] Runaway VW diesel Lore.-- ( from runaway gang member Hagar )

[mark]

I think it needed help to get started on runaway.  Wife had just gone around a 
corner.  When it was stationary, not enough oil kept getting sucked in to
keep it at a boil.  I found oil all the way through the intake tract.  My 
guess is that it got started on runaway, ran up to never before seen rpms, 
broke a ring or three, then quit due to lack of compression or lack of oil.  
The sump wasn't emptied, and it still starts fine, but blows horrendous 
blue/white smoke upon startup.  I live on 10 acres, and I'm thinking a couple 
rounds of the driveway, I could de-mosquito the whole property.
