Mess around with the easier suggestions on the list, if they don't help resign yourself to killing it with the clutch. Generally speaking anything that will get it to run cooler or idle lower should help.
Most of the british cars I have owned, which include Spridgets, Bs, Big Healey and TRs have had a tendency to run on to some extent. The Spridgets were the best, the Big Healey and B the worst.
The worst was a B I had in college, it wouldn't just diesel a little then die, it would actually keep going, in a bucking, nasty rough sort of way, but still keep going for quite some time after the ignition or spark was cut off.
