With the FI, there should never be any run on since the FI should go off as soon as you turn the key. You should be able to hear the main power relay click open when you turn the key off. Does the engine actually keep running after you hear this click, or is the click delayed somehow? - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
