dieseling
it's called dieseling and it can injest water when the engine runs like that.....damage can be done doing that called hydroloc....so...the best thing to do is let it idle for a few minutes and then make sure your idle is set properly...somewhere around 600-650rpms.....you have to also make sure your timing and dwell on points is correct if points are installed on your engine.....if you have electronic ignition..then ignore that part....dieseling can also be from too rich a mixture on the carb....if your good with carbs...adjust the idle mixture to proper setting ...all those can affect dieseling....
welcome to the zoo....
