I think I need some new plugs, but before I do that I want to ask since I've never had this problem before.
When the car is cold it starts with a couple pumps then dies, unless I feather the pedal while it's trying to catch.
If I pull the choke it takes 3-4 tries to run.
I think my plugs are fouled and with the colder weather I need to replace them. The oil is due to change also. What do you guys recommend to fix this problem? My car is garaged; if I leave it out then it's harder to start.
