Thank you to all who have made comments on my code starting problem. The battery is brand-new in June and is 6 V and the cables are the weight recommended for a 6 V battery. Starter motor turns over quickly. It has an SU carburettor and new cables and plugs. The thing is that it starts brilliantly from warm but badly from stone cold. This will happen as soon as the engine has cooled down completely so it could happen at the other end of the same day.
I'm fairly sure that it is a problem with the carburettor and maybe the choke and perhaps just spraying some EasyStart to the air intake is the way to go when it is cold. I'll try that from Halfords.
Any other comments are welcome and thank you again
