Fairly recently, I was on here regarding a starting issue, when my Year-2008 1.4 was failing to cold-start first go, then requiring a second 'go' in order to get running - this seemed to get solved, after I fitted a new set of spark plugs.

Now though, I am getting a sort of spluttering start up, when I start from cold - it seems like it's not firing up on all cylinders, may need a second 'go' in order to start with lumpy riunning, which clears after a few seconds of running, with me working the throttle to blip it up and 'clear it's throat'. Thereafter, car runs normally and any hot restarts are no problem, it will 'go' first time, straight into normal running. Next day though, back to splutter starting though!

Any ideas, please, as to likely cause?
