car runs after shutting both fuel pumps off
i have a 1983 930 that started acting wierd. i was coming home from a short ride and the car started missing alittle. ran fine under full acceleration but felt wierd midrange steady throttle. i got home and went to sut it down( i have the fuel pumps wired to switches whick is how i sut the car off) and the car kept running for a good minute. the only things that are different from the last time i drove it is it's about 25*f and i was real low on fuel. would this have something to do with it or is there another problem. any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. btw, the car fires right up after it finally shuts off. thanks in advance, mick

If it's actually dieselling for a good minute, don't let it do that until it decides to finally shut off (it aint good for the motor). Rather, put the car in gear - put your foot on the brake - and slowly let the clutch out to kill the engine.
