Car starting problem... 200 86

posted by  someone claiming to be Anthony D. on  Fri Dec 7 04:47 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I'm about to buy my neighbor's 1986 245. 4spd/ovd transmission. Here's the deal. I had another 1986 244, always started perfectly. This 245 needs to be revved up when started to keep it from stalling. It doesn't have the problem as badly when the engine is warm. My neighbor says it's been that way for years. Is this something to be concerned about? He fixes everything on the car, so I was surprised he passed this one off. Thanks in advance.
