It occasionally starts and runs very rough, like it’s choking, smoke comes out from under the bonnet, like it’s back firing. Would this be a symptom of a stuck throttle valve?
When this happens I just turn it off and it goes fine next time around.
I do find I can’t Rev it until it decides whether or not it wants to continue running, once it gets past about 3 seconds of firing up the engine tone changes and I can then Rev it, if I try too early it just dies. Does this sound like throttle issues or is this just the norm when starting?
Cheers
