<VV> Smitty's run on

[Ed Dowds]

>Smitty Says:  Question # One.  Why does Spike continue to stagger on, 
>running
after the key is off?  Alternator conversion and standard ignition.  It is 
not
"engine run on" in the normal "poor fuel" fuel sense.  It dies as soon as 
the
battery disconnect is pulled.<
On some alt conversions the alt continues to provide voltage even when the 
ign is turned off. It is very common on converted streetrods. The easiest 
way to solve the problem is to put a diode in the small wire going to the 
alt.
