Dean:
Likely two different issues.
The 15.5 volts means the alternator (a three phase device) is having problems. It will destroy the module in your ignition system if it persists.
When you get a replacement, have the store test it in front of you, even after they try to talk you out of it. The “infant mortality rate” on those Chinese rebuilds is astonishing.
The running on is likely not related, and could be dieseling, something I’ve not had to deal with in a very long time. I would start with checking and adjusting the timing.
Someone else here may have better suggestions.
