Turn key/ignition off and its running the same as if the ignition is still on or stalling and restarting/chugging low idle?
Either as Briano1234 says ignition switch faulty if running normal.
If chugging and restarting the timing may be way off or to much petrol getting in/mixture to rich, fuel cut off valve not working.

Idle is way to high and that will not help with shutting it off, what carb do you have, Webber or Pierburg?

I joined this site as I have the 8V 1.8 petrol engine it.
I'm trying to bring it back to life, and "rubjohnny" from this site has been very useful in my restoration! :')
