before this i would pump the gas twice and she would start right up and run on high idle till warm then i could tap it down and she would run smooth never had a problem with this idling thing before
It sounds like your carburetor needs to be cleaned. The choke doesn't sound like it's working properly, and the high idle linkage is getting stuck.
With the air cleaner housing removed, you should be able to watch the linkages on the side of the carb while someone else presses the pedal and you may be able to figure out where the problem is with the idle linkage.
As for the choke, I'm going to assume that you have an automatic choke that isn't working as well in the colder weather. It may not work at all, or it may be not working very well due to its age or something. It's a tough one to diagnose without being there to watch it close the butterfly.

Sounds like the choke is stuck or malfunctioning.
could be a few things but it sounds like you've got a vacuum leak,there's a test you can do yourself .fill a spray bottle with water and non flammable dish detergent and spray around the top of your engine while its running .if you notice a change in idle up or down,high or low than check the area you sprayed and see if there is vacuum hose unhooked or worn or even hole in it.do not use WD 40 or anything that's flammable to spray in your or on your engine while running,it could go up in flames.read directions first The Project Gutenberg eBook of The Ontario High School Reader, by :: Sep 28, 2007 He also introduces the new idea "wrong" which he makes still more It was the General coming to join his men. .

It sounds like two problems that have chosen to present themselves at the same time! However, it could be just one problem. If it has a carb. then it could be the accelerator pump, or it could be the electric part of the choke unplugged. You might need to spray some choke and carb cleaner on it, and help free it up. It MAY even need a tune up. Hope this helped, and good luck!
