[Healeys] SU slow run valve or open throttle coninued

[goldengt at cal.net]

I already do the dump the clutch technique.
I have found that that the slower the idle the less run on, probably due 
to less fuel present.
In a round about way my question was probably which idle technique gives 
a leaner mixture? Maybe at a specified idle speed the mixtures are the 
same.
Since American cars of the 70's used idle solenoids, I am thinking I 
could put on a solenoid for the idle with ignition off. When ignition is 
off the throttle blades go completely closed. Combined with a low idle I 
might be less irritated.
