    Ignition issues, Truck Continues Running After Twisting Key to Off Position

    Thanks, it wouldn't happen to be the commutator interrupter switch would it? I'm trying to narrow it down.

    Ignition issues, Truck Continues Running After Twisting Key to Off Position

    Hello, slowly but surely I'm ironing out these little bugs. I went to shut the truck off the other day and it continues running. Not dieseling, but just idling smoothly, I then turn the key back to the running position and back again, I can hear the engine kind of beginning to lose a little...

    High Idle 84 chevy C20 w/350

    Hello all, my truck starts without issue and is at normal high idle, however it won't drop back down. It remains stuck until I put it in gear of course, but as soon as it's put in neutral/park, it quickly returns to its high spot. I don't know a lot about its history, I just bought the truck and...
