Hi Peter,
A higher octane gasoline somtimes cures this running-on or dieseling as us
Americans call it. The carb version of the '73 through '76 TR6s exported to
the US were equipped with an anti run-on valve to prevent this. I don't
believe the valve was used on the PI versions. I undserstand some US cars
have made their way to Europe, so if you have one of those, you might check
out the note at the following link --- checking of the anti run-on valve is
described about half way through the note.
