I used to have to do this as well on my GT6. That is, until I corrected the
timing, and more importantly, upgraded to a higher octane fuel (91 using
R+M/2). Now I have absolutely no dieseling at all. If I use a lower octane fuel
(89 or 87), the dieseling returns although it is never as bad as it used to be
before the timing was adjusted.

when they are a bit overheated, so I learned long ago to let the clutch out with
the transmission in gear and my foot on the brake, just after turning the key
off.
