DOOMS Engine Destroyed!!!

[RacerX]

Oh my! :( Video from yesterday:

qifKlCi5y3c



















J/K! FRPS went bad. Disk inside it blew causing fuel to go shooting through the vacuum/boost line on the sensor and into the intake plenum.
Fuel was pooled up in all cylinders also. The Ford techs had to take out all the plugs a couple times just to clear the cylinders out of fuel before
they could even start to try and fire her up removing all the fuel sitting in the plenum. No harm done.
The rings must have a great seal still since they could not detect any fuel in the oil.

Is it really his car? If so:mad2:

[SC Cheesehead]

Doomie'll do anything to keep from coming up against Pop's Grand Monkey at MV10... ;)

[DOOM]

:popcorn: :popcorn:

[J.bo]

That's just seafoam.

[RacerX]

I didn't think he would take me seriously when I told him brake fluid worked better than Seafoam. 2 bottles???
Sheesh! I was only kidding Jake! Or it could have been the 15 gallons of Diesel fuel he topped off with... :dunno:

[Blown3.8]

Hope the oil was changed after that. Bet that starter was screaming too.

[PonyUP]

Isn't this the 17th engine for Doomie?😝

+1 on that, Ive seen a Termi owner who failed to do so & after a 1500 miles it was disaster.

You sure you don't have Doom confused with Dom? ;) -----> :D

[Krytin]

He could have used my ignition box/tailpipe sparkplugs for a BIG flamethrower show!
Hope everyting will be ok.

If you hold the pedal to the floor (TPS > 90%), it shuts the injectors off to help clear a flooded condition. In this case, totally appropriate.

I said the exact same thing when I saw the video. I attempted this on my parts car.

:D A little hint here. Read the fine print at the bottom in my original post. There was a POOL of fuel in the plenum. This was at a very large Ford dealership and these guys new what they were doing. The fuel was shut off in most of the video. You can see the service manager turn the inertia switch on towards the end. They did have the gas pedal to the floor to shut the injectors off. We asked, they already knew (of course!).

[burt ragio]

Come on whaz the deal. Is it seafoam diesel fuel in the tank or is Dooms motor done ? It still sounds like all cylenders are bumbing fine. Saturday Billy Bob & I think Drew Stag left to give Doom a helping hand; I left the car show just after the awards. I hope it works out.

[burt ragio]

Got it. Always read the small print fprs.
Bill was on the money when he initially predicted fprs.

Had the same thing happen on my second marauder, pretty inexpensive part, could have caused expensive damage. I hope you guys get it sorted out.:beer:

[BODYMAN]

Also had one go bad. Now I have like 5 off them cause evrytime I go to scrap yard I pick one up.

All is well with Doom and his car! He was in touch with some very smart guys right when the problem started (RacerX for one) and got the thing diagnosed correctly. The Ford guys took care of it on Sat. AM with Doom, RacerX and NH Muscle there making sure it got fixed right. Bill (RacerX) had the part Jake needed and he and Jake were back to take laps on the track with us Sat. afternoon. A great example of how Marauder owners stick together and look out for each other. Jake was cool under fire, took it in stride and RacerX is my hero! :beer:

One question Paula, did Doomie get cookies?

[Ms. Denmark]

One question Paula, did Doomie get cookies?But of course! Isn't that why he drove all night with no sleep to get to NH????:confused: :D

[SC Cheesehead]

But of course! Isn't that why he drove all night with no sleep to get to NH????:confused: :D

Only three things I can think of that would motivate Doomie that much:


Ms. D's cookies
A big ol' slab of BBQ ribs.
or


3. Midgets.... ;) -------> :D

[RacerX]

Did you sayyyyyyyy.... MIDGETS!!!
