It would be helpful to post your year, model and engine size.

It sounds like carbon knock from carbon heating up allowing the engine to run after shutting off.
Try dripping some seafoam into the carburator when it is running. Available at Napa auto parts stores.
Make sure the motor is tuned up properly to prevent reoccurrance.
