Citi Golf chico 1.4i has cold start problem. It starts but thi idle is still on 1000 rpm and if you touch the throttle it dies. If jou carefully increase the rpm it works fine once it has some heat in the engine.

The idle control switch at the back of the carb is either dead or not fully conected. Wire from idle valve to ignition positive and carb grounded.

Check fuel pump relay.
Check fuel pump control cirucuit.
Check fuel pump/

have the fault codes read first

sound like vacuum hose leak.raise hood with engine idling accelerate engine at the throttle lever look listen for vacuum leak.

loose o rfaulty electrical connections at distributer, coil or alternator.fault in fuel or electrical systems.Vacuum leak at the gasket surfaces of the intake manifold or throttle body.,Make sure all mounting bolts/nuts are tightened securely and all vacuum hoses connected to the manifold are positioned properly and in good condition

TRY REPLACING YOUR PCV VALVE

Check that the choke accelerated idle cam is not stuck. Check that the throttle cable has not dislodged and the outer casing is riding on the bracket. Check that the throttle linkages are free and the throttle returns to the idle adjustment stop. If all these are correct, adjust the idle adjustment to obtain the correct idle speed. 700 - 800 rpm is about the right speed.

Yeah it sounds kinda high. There is no adj except for the idle screw on the throttle, the computer does the rest, if it has one. If not, then you can adjust it some how. If carbureted, check for 2 little screws in the front, and check the choke, If throttle body, then just the idle screw, the idle should be around 1000. Hope this helps.

the idle air control valve may be bad or just needs cleaned out. idle air control valve acts the same as a choke. if it is messing up it will cause engine not to run right.

it sounds like you have a injector leaking down into one of your cylinders so it is flooding out a cylinder thus runs rough and long cranks.
