My 82 F150 has a 300I6 and a C6 and when hot it will keep running after i shut it off i have reset the idle
would it be the timing? the motor is new a shortblock put in in 1998 with only 7000 miles on it so is it the timing

Could be the timing. For all the effort that it takes, get a light and check it. If this doesn't solve the problem, than the engine might be carboned up. Set it up to run on a fast idle, and SLOWLY pour a little water through the carb. Don't let it stall. When you,ve gon through about half a liter, that should be enough.

Couple of other things:
1). Excessive idle speed/defective thottle position solenoid - if equipped.
2). Overly rich mixture.
3). Carbon deposits in combustion chamber - if they exist you'll need to find out why...

Wrong spark plugs type and gap...
try also using higher octane fuel like 95 or better, it will help...
This seems to be a temporary problem for new or rebuil carburated engines... You can also turn it off while tranny is in Drive "D"
