My 1987 truck I use to have had a choke and it would stick open some times. When you get in the vehicle, you have to press the gas pedal to the floor once to set the choke and add enough fuel to start the vehicle. I assume your vehicle has a carburetor and would suggest the following:

When your engine is cold, take off the air cleaner cover and base and look the butterfly valves. They are fist valve on the top of the carb air inlet. Go and step on the gas pedal once. Observe if the valves move to the almost closed position or not. If they don

If you have spark and fuel, the next stop would be either the crank position or camshaft position sensors.Either one of those can stop the engine from firing.

My 95 Wrangler wont start when the engine is cold. it will crank but not start unless you give it gas. It starts fine when its hot (90 degrees) outside or i've already started and drove it that day, but in...

i was told that if the jeep all of a sudden didnt start on its own without giving it gas, then next time you start it hold the pedal all the way to the floor and it resets something in the computer and sets you back to normal.

My 1997 Dodge Avenger's engine won't start

Try cam and/or crank sensor. If crank to cam timing isn't detected properly it'll crank all day but won't start. I had similar problem on my 2.5L V6 Avenger....drove home fine, no engine light, next morning it cranked, but wouldn't start. The crank sensor was faulty.
