I see you changed the page on dieseling. I have heard the term used (actually stated in a manuel for a high powered air rifle) as a detonation of vapours due to high temperatures. It would be my interpretation that this definition of dieseling does not only refer to diesel engines. If you think about it, this detonation of vapours due to high heat is in fact what is happening during engine run-on.

Do you not think that the most strict and straightforeward definition of dieseling should be mentioned before engine run-on? I'll admit my original definition is a bit wordy:

''Dieseling refers to the detonation of flamable vapours in high temperature and or pressure environments. Typically, the term dieseling describes a secondary, non-essential detonation as an after-effect of a normal mechanical operation. Most often the term is used in reference to diesel internal combustion engines. However, dieseling can also be used to describe a secondary detonation in any suitable circumstance and environment. The term is not strictly limited to diesel fuel alone, as any flamable hydrocarbon or vapors can cause such a detonation.''

Maybe we could cut it down to a sentence or two? I do think it should be mentioned that the term in the most strict sense does not refer exclusively to diesel engines.

Cheers, and good editing to you,
