Why does the engine sound like it is still running after you turn 1994 Olds Achieva S off?
If the engine of a 1994 Olds Achieva sounds like it is still running after you turn it off, it could be due to a phenomenon known as "dieseling" or "run-on." This occurs when the engine continues to run due to residual heat igniting the fuel in the combustion chamber, often caused by a dirty carburetor or improper fuel mixture. Another possibility is an electrical issue, such as a faulty ignition switch or a problem with the engine's electrical system that keeps the engine running momentarily. Checking the fuel system and ignition components can help diagnose the issue.

Why does myHeater stays running with engine shut off idea?
It sounds as if it's running because once it's turned on and ran it starts to heat up. Once you turn off the engine it makes the sound of it running because it is still trying to cool down; hense, it's the fan motor that's making that sound, not the actual heater. FYI, I'm a mother of 2 and an attorney. I found this out about the fan thing AFTER it happened to me and I asked a mechanic. He acted like I was an idiot.

What would cause the engine cooling fan in a 1998 Saturn SL2 to remain running after the engine is turned off?
I've seen this happen in Honda's. Does it remain running for long periods of time or never shut off? If it is only running for a short time, it's cooling off your engine still because it's still really hot. There's nothing wrong with this.
