Anyone had that happen?, I had a mazda ute with a 22rb motor that was worst for wear, pulled up at a intersection one day and noticed it was idling quiet fast, next minute it was doing about 40,000 revs and i had my foot no were near the go pedal!!
Turned the key off nothing happened.
In panic mode straight away as this thing was gunna go into orbit, so i tossed a laser level out the window onto the foot path, grabbed a few other things and started to bolt..lol, Something told me "stop", and when i turned around the black smoke had just about blocked out the sun. Talk about REVS!!, When the brain started to work i jumped back in, thru it in fifth cog and dropped the clutch. stopped it but Needless to say that was the beginning of the end for that gearbox..lol. One of the highlights of owning a worn out vehicle.


Cheers Axle.
