'93 stock serria,,,from cold (20c) fires up straight away but won't idle. Gun it for ten seconds or so, and will idle at 1250rpm till hot then drop to 900rpm...sometimes when hot turns over a few times before starting....carby is in good nick.

What can be wrong with it?.runs and drives like a new one.

sounds like auto choke issue.

OK, I'll have a look at that, the bottom of the carby was replaced about a year ago, I'll pull the hoses off and try to clean where the wax thingy is....what do dashpots do??

tar and bye

Good call....choke was fully open, but it is 32c..I'll have another look in the morning, ambient temp will be about 25c..will that be cold enough to close choke?
I sprayed carby cleaner in the dashpots anyway.
The fix will be beyond me anyway, It won't really be an issue for another 6 months.
