Air cooled 2.0 not idling when cold

Idles fine when warm, after a few minutes.

It's not a major hassle from a driving point of view, I'm just wondering whether it's something I should investigate?

chokes working? pop the air filter off when cold and see if they are closed

Cheers, will check them... time to dig out the Haynes manual, for the first bit of prodding.

Update... So I spend some time peering at the Haynes manual that came with the van. Comparing their pictures with what I found in the engine bay, completely confused. And then finally realise, the manual is for water cooled... doh!

Anyone know any links to a schematics of the 2.0l Aircooled? Am I right in thinking it's twin carb? I assume the auto choke is part of the carb assembly.

(I think what I need to do is get the correct Haynes manual. e2a... shiny new one ordered!)

Hi billy. Profile duly updated. I suspect London would be a tad far - Nice to know there's such helpful people around this place.
