There is a switch underneath the gas pedal that sometimes sticks or in my case the pedal didn't come back far enough the disengage the switch. Also if the black/ white wire is disconnected from the control unit or gas pedal switch it will allow the engine to idle.

Yes, the key will still shut it off in either instance. The black/white wire is easy to check. The pedal switch on mine I have to crawl underneath due to having a solid floorboard, but it's easy to find.
