Can you be more specific when you say "...it runs after you turn the key off..."? Does the engine literally continue running like the ignition switch is in the run position (i.e. key in and turned to the right) OR does it just "diesel" a little and then die after the ignition is turned off?

"Dieseling" is slang for when an engine continues to run after the key is off. But, the engine is basically stumbling the whole time (i.e. it's not idling or racing). Normally only lasts a couple of seconds, sometimes longer if something is really out of adjustment. Let us know.
