Starting problem

[eewun]

Hey, when i start the car cold it barely starts and then just stalls like it cant keep itself going, if i rev is a bit it seems to keep going after a while but still sounds a bit....'takerty'. just wondered if anyone knew what it might be?
It only started about two days ago now and my dad thinks it might be the auto choke maybe?

Gonna get it looked at but would like some ideas on what it could be before i get mugged for some random 'big job'.


cheers!

Problem solved mate! it was the little metal clip on the throttle cable, it had been moved too tight...probly me tbh. just glad it wasnt anything serious!

cheers tho
