The TR 6 (circa 1974) had a solenoid valve that dumped manifold vacuum when the ignition switch was turned off.</div>

<div dir="auto">The later model MGB used an "Anti Run-on Valve" which subjected the float chambers to manifold vacuum when the key was turned off. I would think one could be installed on a BJ8 without too much difficulty.

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