I have a Peugeot Boxer 1994 MWB 2.5 diesel, when I turn off the
ignition the engine continues to run even if I remove one of the
battery leads the engine still runs. The only way to stop the engine
is to stall it. Also when the ignition is in the off position the oil
light remains on but goes out as soon as I turn on the ignition, the
two problems seem to be connected. Can anyone advise me.

As its a diesel and requires no electrical input for the engine to run (once
its running) the only way to stop it is to cut off the fuel. When you turn
the ignition off a 'stop soleniod' is activated in the diesel pump which
cuts the flow off, so i'm gussing this has a problem. Not sure how it would
be connected to the oil light, perhaps theres a bit of dodgy wiring
somewhere?

Sounds like the stop solenoid on the fuel pump is faulty,
has this just occurred or has it been like this for a while,
