Hi,

I was wondering if anybody can advise on a problem I'm having with my 1972 Fiat 500L?

The car starts with no problem with the choke on however once the engine has warmed up and I turn the choke off fully it immediately cuts out. As a result I have to drive the car with the choke still on a little (choke lever almost all the way down). The car then runs fine for a while but then often just cuts out while I'm driving.

I suspect an adjustment of the carb idling is required but just thought I'd see if anybody else has experienced this or knows what the problem is?

Thanks
Antonio
