92 F-150 302, auto, 4x4.

Truck starts and runs fine but when you turn the key to the off position it still runs.

Any ideas? Lock cylinder?

does it die on its own after a few minutes? just spitballing but maybe your starter never disengages properly and it continues to spin when its not suppose to.
