Car Sputtering after its off
Whats the cause of the sputtering after you turn the car off? Is it the timming is to far after tdc? Or is it to far before tdc? Or is it in the fuel? Any ideas?

Are you talking about dieseling? This can be caused by not having enough initial advance in the distributer. This causes you to open up on the idle speed on the carburetor to keep the engine running. Set the initial advance at something around 12 to 16 degrees. Adjust idle speed as needed.
