Td6 briefly runs away when switched over to diesel

Recently got an old td6 running but what has started happening as I run it more is when I switch it over from gas to diesel it runs away for just a few seconds. When running on gas it seems normal and there is no smoke, I am leaning towards injection pump problems but not sure. When it calms back down there is no problem running on diesel and runs very good. I also see the same thing happen on my MD from time to time but it is very consistent on this crawler. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks Allen
 
what do you mean by running away? is it over reving the max load rpm? or just running at high idle?
 
When I hit the lever to increase compression without giving any throttle it seems to get quite close to if not faster than the speed the engine is meant to run and roars quite loud and blows out a lot of smoke
