W123 - 200T carb/lpg starting problem?

Hi folks,
I was wondering if anybody knows what I can do to remedy my starting problem. Although the engine starts and the revs rise as normal, they quickly fall again and the engine cuts out unless I keep my foot on the throttle and rev the engine. There is also very little power when the engine is cold. I can hardly pull away! However once the engine is warm -everything seems fine and power is O.K.
This occurs whether starting on gas or petrol - although it is marginally better on petrol. If the choke is coming off too early can this be fixed or do I need a new Carb?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks

W123-200T lpg starting problem?

Hi folks,
I don't know whether any body can help but my car keeps stalling from cold start. It does this whether starting on lpg or petrol. The revs quickly drop and then the engine cuts out. If the carb choke is coming off too early - can this be fixed? or do I need a new carb?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks
