[TR] TR4 engine question

[Andrew Uprichard]

Assuming everything else (timing, carburation) is set, do you have an electric fan?  My TR3 runs on if the fan is still on when I turn the ignition off.

First off, congratulations on your win.

 

Secondly, do what I do.  Put the car in fourth gear and let the clutch out as you switch off.  Be sure to set the brake first.  My TR6 diesels even with the anti-run-on valve.  So does the TR3.

Fresh TR4 engine that does that "dieseling" thing after you turn off the

key.  It like it tries to keep running but with a cough and then stops.  The

TR6 has an anti-run on valve to help with that.  What do I treat on a TR4

motor?  P.S.  So proud that after 8 years putting my 4 back together stock,

I won first place in the sports car group at the AACC winter national.  

Thanks
