Default Dieseling on shutdown



Dieseling (from what I've heard) is usually caused by bits of carbon,
stuck to the plug. These are red hot, and keep re-igniting the
residual gas left in the cylinder. Are the plugs wet when you remove
them? Does the engine " puff " blue when you first start it? Could be
valve seals letting tiny bits of oil into the cylinder.
