yep - I kill the switch and the engine continues to try and run supposedly from late spark occurring at the time I kill the power - I was told if the timing was off it would cause this....maybe not. I do not know what the official name of this is, always heard it called cadillacing. Never heard anyone say it was caused by engine deposits that's for sure....hmmmm
