The petcock is vacuum operated. It should not pour fuel once disconnected. It may leak a bit so be prepared for that but as long as it is functioning correctly... it will NOT continue to flow fuel.

Leave it at ON. Turning it to PRIME will allow fuel to flow, even if the engine is off/disconnected.
