The runaway you experienced worries me a bit.. if you were not opening the throttle any.. it wasn't the pump injecting more fuel to allow the engine to rev which means it was running off of another fuel source.. however when you cut power by turning off the key, and the engine stopped.. that tells us it wasn't another fuel as the stop solenoid in the pump stops fuel from making it to the injectors.

When a pump is at rest (0 RPM) the collar on the plunger that controls fuel delivery is moved to the maximum fuel position. Typically this is more then full throttle. The collar may have been stuck which caused the high revving but the fresh fuel and high rpms may have freed it enough that it can now operate normally.
