Its a VH 253 Blue and when I switch it off the motor still runs on for about 5 seconds(at the worst). I have changed the plugs and leads set the timming at 8 degrees, tried also advance timming and retarding the timming but it is still the same. It seems like its getting worse(runs on longer and getting more frequent). Does any one know whats the go on this.
Thanks
