Check the trim settings on your controller. It may have been altered so that the idle speed is fast enough to engage the clutch. Also make sure your clutch isn't destroyed and adhered to the bell.

Also make sure the low speed needle and idle screw are in place.

If it's gotten significantly colder you are definitely going to have to retune it. If it's way out of tune it could be running lean and revving up causing it to wander.

I'd bet money your clutch spring is broke.
