Think about this:
When you adjust the timing, all you change is WHEN the plugs fire.
Dieseling happens after you turn the ignition off!

The fuel mixture is ignited by hot components in the combustion chamber,
such as carbon deposits. This is why newly rebuilt engines normally don't
dieselcan (unless they're diesels...:-).
