As above used to taxi the trijet Falcon 900 with centre reverser deployed as anything but max weight it would run away quite easily - was an approved procedure as I recall

Have also experienced on older aircraft DC8-62/63 and B737-300 where a reverser is slow to close (sticky/badly rigged) and needed a short blast of power to shove it fully home
