Hi bros and sizs, any of you experience your 8's engine running even after key is pulled out? Mine did but I didnt open ip the hood to check, just went back and plug the key in, twist to on and twist to off and pull out the key. Then the engine stop running. What's happening?

I think most likely you mistaken the fan noise as engine running. Either that or someone installed a turbo timer on your 8 without you knowing.

Engine could also be knocking from using the wrong fuel?

maybe he got a turbo timer hehe

but i think should be the fan cause if the engine is real hot... most of the time.... the cooling fan will still run for awhile..

Read the user manual. It is the fan. It will stop approximately after 10 mins.

If it is cool or cold where you are it probably won't. Not this week but it was really cold the last two weeks where I live. I do not recall mine coming on at all. When I pull my garage I always notice it cause I can feel hot air as I get out of the car.
