I'm not sure if what you're referring to is the same prob I had, but my car would still run for a second after I turned it off. My mechanic (who is also a compete @ss) reffered to it as diesling, said that the "fast idle cam was stuck" not too sure, what that is or where it is but apparently it just needing to be lubed. (remember I'm not very mechanically knowledgeable-but that is why I'm reading these boards)

I've had that problem before but my car running to hot caused it.
I upgraded my cooling system and got my temps down and the problem went away.

i dont think its that because sometimes the car will be off for hours (nice and cool) and i could just turn it on and shut it off and it would still sometimes do it. or go to back out of a drive way, put it in R and punch the peddel and let go and feel like its about to die as soon as i let it go, or sometimes even stall out. it happend today just stalled.
