Sounds about normal to me.
I still have to do that with my fuel injection but that's because it doesn't have an idle speed control valve.

Have an auto choke on my 2+2 & my starting the car procedure consists of one pump of the throttle, turn the key & it will start immediately but I do then have to feather the throttle for 10 > 20 seconds until it decides to tick over with my input & then good to go (except for my ongoing clutch issue). I'm also getting some smoke on cold start up so have purchased a set of valve stem seals of the top hat design which will be fitted next week. If funds were available I would be looking for a manual choke conversion kit...or better still fuel injection!

    Me again! My car has an auto choke. I've looked around the
    steering wheel and I couldn't see anything to pull out. Anyway.
    This morning (before I started the engine) I pressed the
    accelerator pedal a few times and THEN I started the engine.
    However. It cut out pretty much straight away. Am I doing it
    right? Pumping the pedal before I start the engine, then start the
    engine? I also get some smoke out of the exhaust. I take it that's
    normal though? Cold morning's? Thanks again for all your help and
advice.
