When last did you clean your throttle body?

You should check your air filter too & pour some fuel injector cleaner into your tank.

A dirty throttle body can.
Other recommendations are just to ensure your engine runs efficiently.

Yeah. Troubleshooting in older engines is more an art than a science. Because they don't have a computer tells you what could be wrong directly.

I just gave a possible cause, I'm not 100% certain I am right. By the way, how's your battery?

Try this trick before starting next time:

Switch on and off the ignition three times before actually cranking the engine & note if there is any improvement in starting.

I discovered that you would not need to do that if your engine's fuel system is in good shape.

u might no get much input cos ur car is a classic
In a car ,u need to a good spark,air and fuel in proper proportion before u can hve a good starting .
So check the sparking coming from ur ignition system, clean and service ur trottle body system for adequate air and perform fuel pressure test on your fuel rail to determine the pressure u are getting .
