Default 67 GTO timing trouble

Hello, I just purchased a 67 GTO , The previous owner replaced the points with a petronics system. The car has never to our knowing had a new timing chain so who knows what condition it is in. The problem is the car contunues to run on or diesel when you turn the key off. He admits to trying to adjust the distributor and idle speed and even the fuel air mixture a little. What sequence of steps do I need to get the car to shut off. I do have a timing light. It did work before he tried to fix it. You know that story.
Thanks
Tom
