Same problem here with the TR3 motor in the Morgan, but not the TR3.  I don=E2=
=80=99t see how ignition timing could affect it as it is turned off.  I used=
 to hear it was due to carbon buildup continuing to ignite fuel, but that do=
esn=E2=80=99t fly for a fresh engine. =20

I=E2=80=99m going to lean the mixture a little and see if that makes any dif=
ference.  Till then, Dave=E2=80=99s method of easing the clutch out seems to=
 be the accepted workaround. =20

Assuming everything else (timing, carburation) is set, do you have an electr=
ic fan?  My TR3 runs on if the fan is still on when I turn the ignition off.=

First off, congratulations on your win.
=20
Secondly, do what I do.  Put the car in fourth gear and let the clutch out a=
s you switch off.  Be sure to set the brake first.  My TR6 diesels even with=
 the anti-run-on valve.  So does the TR3.

Fresh TR4 engine that does that "dieseling" thing after you turn off the
key.  It like it tries to keep running but with a cough and then stops.  The=

TR6 has an anti-run on valve to help with that.  What do I treat on a TR4
motor?  P.S.  So proud that after 8 years putting my 4 back together stock,
I won first place in the sports car group at the AACC winter national.=20
