When starting engine after its been sitting over winter everything went OK. Exept the back ports of the Dominator flooded.
But when shutting down,the engine kept on running, had to cut fuel before it died! Everything is same as last season exept that engine and trans has been out of the chassi.

if you are running an MSD ignition it may just be the ignitionsystem causing it. there is a description of how to fix it with a diod in the instructions

Is the idle RPM higher than before and is it running
FAT... either one or both will cause that.... also
if you pull it into gear it will kill the engine unless
its a super loose converter

BTW, is this the same fuel in the tank as last year when you shut it off the last time If so try changing it to new fuel
