yo ash, me agen.
try using some 'nos' octane booster, you get it in halfords and suchlike. this stuff has a marked increase on an engine's performance. you might to want to try adjusting the idle jet and pilot jet on the carb, and do some research into the principle of a CHOKE, are you familiar with the concept of a choke? the idle jet controls the fuel/air mixture at idle, and when the choke is shut, (and throttle open) the fuel for starting the engine comes in here. so that may well be your problem, buddy.
