Engine running on

My engine is running on after turning it off. Checked for vacuum leaks and engine temp is normal so I'm going to try some Winns/STP/Redex treatment to try decoking first. If that doesn't work are there any sensors that could cause this issue?
 
How is it possible for an engine to run on after being turned off? Killing the ingition will kill the engine....?
 
it's basically dieseling, in very simple terms. On old cars with an adjustable dizzy you'd see running on if the timing wasn't set right (too retarded IIRC, it's been a long time since i fiddled with dizzy timing) if you're letting air in, it will feed the remnants of the burn, so it runs on
