Delayed shut-off

Post by tawney »

86 Cabby with a 1.6 TD has developed a habit of waiting about a second or two after the ignition key shuts everything else off. Any ideas? Crud in the stop solenoid? Pretty darn consistent each time. Thanks,
Steve

That would be my first location to look, or possibly a sticky relay.
Everybody else lists their cars here - but not me.
