Dieseling after shut off, 85 k5

Hey guys this forum is great, I have a lil prob, my 86 K5 likes to diesle like hell when I shut it off, I checked the timing last night and adjusted the idle, hasn't changed yet.

Could a real clogged cat converter cause this?
Or am I looking at more of a vacumm or carb problem?

I would suspect a carb problem. Especially if the carb is an old original.

One quick way to check it is to find some buddys who have spare carbs laying around and bolt it on..... see if the problem goes away.... haha of course if that is not an option perhaps having the carb rebuilt ro replaced.

In my limited experience with these kind of problems it is either carb or timing issues.

I am not expert.

Regards,

Stace
