Very common 'B' series problem, more so on the MGB. Usually means there
is hot carbon embers in the combustion chamber...a de-coke perhaps. Poor
quality fuel can be the culprit, ( no detergent.) The MG Metro I have
has an ANTI-RUN-ON valve fitted, it opens into the inlet manifold on
switching off. I liked it so much, I have fitted one to my '64 1622cc
Magnette to stop it,( it is tuned a bit.)
