At the back of your carbie, there is this cold start style choke. it looks like a pin that comes out of the bottom and it applies pressure onto the accelerator lever. Mine sticks every now and again, and wont idle. just wants to stall even when backing of. it may need adjusting at the screw (dont turn it too much, otherwise it will rev high), but start of by giving it a spray with silicone spray or WD40 to loosen it up.
