Hobbes1998 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Hey! Im just wondering if your stay at high revs in your car, your engine will break, where it will backfire, like the old beaters in GTA IV? Or is this an only mission thing, like when Michael was driving Amanda's Sentinel, when Jimmy falls into the car, and Michael tries to catch up to it, and the engine blows, is this possible in free roam in any car? A reply is appreciated! P.S.: Sorry if I repeat myself again, I have serious autism, no control over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkle Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I've had a motorcycle die on me when riding it hard down dirt roads, but I couldn't say for sure that it wasn't from multiple hard landings, rather than pushing the engine too hard. It was note worthy though has I was cruising straight and on a flat road when it happened, and hadn't recently bonked into anything, or landed any hard jumps. Just cut out on me.

P.S.: Sorry if I repeat myself again, I have serious autism, no control over it the reason it gave out in the missiom is not because you were driving fast but because the engine got shot. and it does do that in free roam if you crash alot. happens to me alot when offroading cars lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamsterbaffle Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Whenever your engine just sputters black smoke and dies, it is usually because you've taken a bullet to the gas tank whether you realized it or not. Your tank drains empty (can take a few minutes) and the car dies. Test it yourself. Shoot a hole in your car just ahead of the rear wheels (usually) to puncture the gas tank, then drive around for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSN-Blackhawk_1989 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I just tested out a theory and if you run it on high revs after so much damage, the engine will blow and burn. Get out or it will blow up. HakatoX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0B5TA Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) rev limiter. that's why you hear the rpm's bounce holding down the gas. Edited November 19, 2013 by M0B5TA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky_Light12 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 also try pour gasoline at khamelion . the car will not burn to explode , but it will kill the engine instead in that mission , its impossible to get shot the engine to killing it ( but it will catch fire if riddled too many bullets ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeBoredDude Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Do the old beaters in GTA V still have engine blow out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaturdayNight Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Its happened to me in single player and multiplayer, but only if the car has no armor allowing damage to the engine to take place. Sometimes it will happen when the car is immobile and will not start. Driving a car that dies all of a sudden less likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbes1998 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 doing that will just make the car explode... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
