Actually, the current that you get that runs back to the ignition from the alternator without a diode is a very weak current, which results in the very rough, just barely still turning condition. Kind of like an engine running with a weak coil, or like a wet distributor cap. I agree run on or dieseling can damage engine parts and is the primary reason the condition needs to be fixed.
