    i must have stuffed something up!

    for some reason my land rover restarts after switching off the ignition.

    it just splutters back to life for a few seconds and then kills itself.

    it is a petrol 2.25 in a series 2a.

    can any one please explain why this could be?

    thanks. M.R

    Sounds like it's just "running on".
    This can be caused by a few things, usually mixture or timing. A fast idle won't help either, same goes with the wrong spark plugs.

    Have you tried the basics?
