    Hey Everybody!
    I need help.
    My V8 doesn't want to stop running when I turn the ignition off.
    I turn it off but it stays chugging for a few seconds until it finally dies.
    Am I in big trouble or is this something I can fix.
    Your help is appreciated.

    Time for the long delayed tune up Buddy. Change the plugs, points, cap & rotor at a minimum. If the plug wires have been in there a while, change them out too.

    Mojor tune up then check timing and make sure your distributor is advancing when you give it gas.

    Thanks!
    Looks like I'll have a busy weekend working on the truck, and watching the Chargers win against Kansas City.
