| I haven't been following all of the threads, so what I have to offer may  
already have been mentioned.
 
Carbon buildup in the combustion chamber will cause run-on due to the fact  
the carbon deposits may absorb fuel and glow.  Much like a glow plug in a  
diesel engine, causing the engine to "diesel."
 
Disassembly of the head and mechanical removal of the carbon  should solve 
this problem.
 
Another alternative used back in the 60's, was pouring Bardol down the  
carburetor until the engine stalls.  Wait 15 minutes or so, restart the  engine 
and 
burn off the carbon deposits (and kill a few mosquitoes in the  process).  
 
For all practical reasons, Bardol was nothing much more than an  expensive 
cup of Kerosene which will give the same result.
 
Hope this helps.
