The V8 Owners Forum -

hi,

please can someone help? i started my engine the other day and my shoe accidentally got caught behind the cluch pedal when i was jump starting it and the engine revved at nearly max RPM for about 5 seconds. im scared that i may have damaged something and dont know if im being paranoid about hearing a tapping noice or something when the engine is running now... i cant see any oil leaks around the engine or smoke coming out the exhaust

does any one have any advice or know of a garage in the sussex area that can have a look/listen or help

thanks a lot!

Hi
don't fret, it will be fine, there is thread here http://www.v8forum.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8696
from a few weeks ago, read it, make a nice cup of coco and sleep well tonight, it takes alot to do damage to an engine by reving it in neutral.
sweet dreams
