In order for run-on or dieselling to ocurr, you will need an ignition source. There will always be some left over fuel in the engine, but if there is no spark, it will not continue to run after the ignition is turned off.

Warren may have something there - the spark plugs may be getting too hot, and may be acting as an ignition source?

Your ignition switch may also not be working properly to shut off the car...
