Bob,  Set the parking brake and with clutch depressed, put the trans. in 1st.
gear, right foot on brake, at idle, slowly let the clutch out and when the
engine starts to slow down, turn the ignition off and the engine should stop
with out dieseling on.  Works for me.

Listers,

I know this topic has gotten flogged many times before, but we're having a
severe dieseling (runon) problem with our BN2/100M. Carbs rebuilt, otherwise
running good, but she refuses to shut down. Have cut the idle way down and
retarded the timing a bit, mixture is spot on according to Colortunes and
'lift test,' coolant temp OK. One data point: if we pull out the choke when
turning the ignition off she shuts down immediately.
All suggestions, SWAGs, etc. welcome.

TIA,
bs
