Tech 2 software can identify this problem .. happens alot with engine conversions but should be okay if you are just using same engine in different shell !!!! mate .. i know its expensive but take it 2 vauxhall !!!!

Well there may not be a fault!!!but maybe somthing needs doing with the ignition to tun it off...... if you have a tesco near you ask them to order total vauxhall magazine or subscribe to it monthly .. send a letter to them explaining ur problem and tyhey almost definetly will tell ya :)
