Ok I might have explained things wrong. It does not just pops out. It starts coming out slowly with the vibration until it is out enough to starts to turn off.. It sounds as if it was running out of fuel and I push it back into place and it keeps running. So I dont think its electrical just a...

Ok, that was it. I imagined something fell off. Added a bolt and it now turns off with the switch as it should. Now the last thing I need is a new emergency shutoff switch. The one I have sometimes pops off with the vibration and turns it off. I MacGyvered something to keep it down for now...
