so its still running at 3000 rpm right now? check your throttle cable and make sure the throttle plates go fully closed. there could be ice in the cable making it so the cable can't move, there could be a reason like the cable sheath is out of position up by the throttle lever or ice could be in behind the throttle lever as well. maybe you got water in the key switch and thats why it won't shut off? does the kill switch work? as far as coolant I would just throw regular automotive coolant in it (green stuff not extended life) as most if not all of that is safe for use with aluminum.

If your coolant is empty after 5 mins you need to look for leaks. If it isnt leaking onto the ground, then its going elsewhere, and thats worse.

Its been two hours, hopefully you got it shut down. Can try to pull the caps off the spark plugs in a bind.
