Screwed up possibly

[GrungeGod494]

My blaster rolled over me today, I only have a bruised shoulder, a tweaked neck, and a gashed up hand so I'm lucky I guess, I bailed when I knew I wouldn't make the hill, it was too loose and I didn't have enough speed, it rolled over me, but the bumper in the front kept it from rolling again. It ran upside down for about...4-8 seconds, but runs fine now, no problems. I was wondering if I screwed anything up by not getting to the killswitch faster?

should be fine. make sure your oil injection didn't get airlocked or anything.

I'm still kind of bleh from the painkillers they gave me. What do you mean airlocked, sorry if I'm seeming like a pest.

if the oil flowed out of the line and pump while it was upside down the pump could get airlocked. it will run but won't pump anything because it is made to pump oil not air. it can't move the air so the oil can't get to the pump. get rid of that oil injection before it screws ya.

well i saw smoke while it was upside down, so, im sure its still pumping oil. I'll check it out tomorrow.

that smoke was the accumalated oil in the crank chamber going down to the cumbusiton chamber bc you were upside down. all of the oil that goes into the engine doesn't burn right away. most of it accumulates in the crank chamber to keep it lubricated, and slowly makes it's way to the cumbustion chamber where it burns off and makes smoke.

well. im not sure if it was upside down. i think it was more or less standing straight up on the bumper after it rolled ontop of me.
