did save your engine i presume..
the low RPM & the high pressure in cilinderhead/combustion space, did immediatly stop the engine to turn over, saved your valve's and pistons..

so not that unlucky after all!!

Welcome to the dodged a bullet club!







Engine fire from an EGR Valve was mine - has only burned the plastics with no other damage!

Must be something lucky about de-tangoed black D3s!
