[Roadsters] Running after ignition switched off

Depends on how long it runs on.

I had that problem long ago when my ammeter was bypassed. The connection 
between the two ammeter leads was not good. When I corrected this 
problem the run on quit.

What year is you car? My 67.5 has quick connect terminals for the 
ammeter that get hot and loose their tension over the years, causing 
connection problems. I replaced the terminals with ring terminals and 
the problem went away.

Could also be carboned up combustion chambers causing dieseling.

Peace,
Pat
