LOL.. not a secret to me I have had a few of the younger techs freak out when it happens on a car or truck engine but quickly tell them to crank it.. Im glad you brought it up for people here that do not know that trick tho.. Ive see a few engines ruined by chemical fire extinguishers when all they had to do was crank the engine over.
