Default electical issues

My vette is a 75,350,400 auto, proplem start the car it runs fine but when you shut it off it runs about 15 seconds and the shuts down. It aint like it is dieseling,there is no change at all in the way the car runs after you shut off the switch.
This starter right after i was working on my wipers was getting power to the wiper motor so I checked the ground on the wiper motor it also is hot. Thanks for any help Bill

Make sure the wiper/blower ground wire (black) is on the bellhousing bolt, not on the big starter power stud.
