turning off the key while cruising

[chase]

has anyone tried this....

anong mangyayari pag tumatakbo ka ng 60kph...then you turn the engine off...
anong mangyayari?

hehehehe

[yebo]

front wheel drive, manual? malamang taob ka.

rear wheel drive, manual? engine brake lang, kaso sigurado kawawa tranny mo.

A/T tranny front or rear wheel drive? pwede masira tranny mo.

Did this one before [accidentally] sa van ng auntie ko [automatic]. The key had a long key-chain and I was stumping my leg sa tune sa radio and tinamaan ko. The ride started jerking and I was wondering why. Then I looked at the key and it was turned to off. We were at 70mph at the time. Wala lang, I went all the way to stop, put it to neutral then go again. Pero sabi ng cousion kong mechanic, I could have just put it ot neutral daw without stopping totally and I could have just turned the engine back on.

happened to me once...

although nag loose lang ata battery connection...

pero ginawa ko is neutral then start the engine... ayun... oks na!

[Karding]

yup, kailangan mabilis kang kumambyo papuntang Neutral or else...

[chase]

salamat gus hehehe

something like this happened to our van before. the engine just died while cruising, so in a way, parang turning off the key/ignition na din. the van had power steering and brakes. so when the engine died, pati power steering and brakes, nawala din. when the steering goes, mahirap na mag steer, and when you're unlucky enough to lock the steering going 60kph.. well you imagine the rest. buti na lang i was just going 30 or so in an open road.

delikado yan maglock yung steering wheel mo. diba yung mga oto ngayon pag tinanggal yung susui tapos try mo turn yung steering wheel mag lock sya.

[ozcity]

pero yung ibang A/T hindi mo matatanggal yung key
pag wala sa "P" yung kambyo mo..

[pissword]

hahaah aba napapaisip na tuloy ako magpatakbo ng mabilis eh hehehe... pero bat un friend ko honda civic un eh namatay bigla un car while cruising wala naman meron, taka lang sya bakit d na humaharurot hehe.. tsaka umilaw un red na indicator.

pwede mo namang start ulit ang kotse while cruising. turn the key to on then put the gear appropriate to speed, depress the gas let off of the clutch. ingat lang at baka bitawan mo clutch while on a gear, taob ka nga non. :D

i had deliberately tried this myself. pero while i'm going fast, naka neutral ang gear. what happened is, when engine went off, tumigas ang brakes. eh downhill ang andar ko, matulin. so inistart ko ulit at um-ok na brakes. since then diko na inulit. baka kung ano mangyari, eh halos walang brake! dami pa naman sasakyan sa pagbaba, may traffic.

there were also times na accidentally namamatayan ako ng engine habang matulin ang takbo, all you have to do is step down all the way on clutch, and while at it, start again the engine and let go the clutch slowly. MAKE SURE you are on the proper high gear when you do this.

btw, i drive a manual transmission front wheel drive.

delikado ang mga ganyang stunts. don't try it. drive properly.

dangerous! ive tried turning off the ignition of the CRV(AT) while coasting downhill ... when i tried to brake, no brakes! i quickly pulled the handbrake and started the engine again!

whoo! muntik na!

[sequoia]

eh yung tumatakbo ng 60kph tapos na i-reverse mo yung A/T, nangyari na sa inyo? di sinasadya na ilagay ko sa reverse , ang nangyari namatay yung makina. nagtataka ako bakit ayaw tumaas yung tachometer pag tinatapakan ko yung gas yun pala ang nagawa ko. buti na lang company caar yun.

[tarmac]

titgas preno... tapos maglo-lock yung steering... tapos TAPOS!

... if i were you, don't even try it. not worth it. if you do it at 10kph sa isang empty parking lot baka pwede pa, at least you'll get a sense of what'll happen.

thanks, i was thinking of doing this one time kase naglagay ako ng hks bov and it sometimes causes my car go into limp mode tapos kapag naka limp mode and kotse ko eh 8psi lang ang ibinibigay instead of 20psi, it sucks when you are about to race someone tapos biglang limp mode.

[kimpOy]

dont do it, meron dito nag lock ang steering wheel, hit a tree, all dead except the driver.
