well somtimes ill start it and it will crank right over but other times it'll like drag itself out but im sure thats my starter bolts broken off in the starter so it dont got the greatest connection but it works for now,but what i was really wondering once i start it ill have a weird idle somtimes it'll idle high and the drop instantly and olmost kill it'self and then eventually idle fine its just weird ill leave my foot on the pedle at about 2500 rpm keepin it steady and all of a sudden itll drop without letting off the pedal and it'll almost die but it only does this when u first start it any ideas?

Mounted on the throttle body. I'm not exactly sure where, since my duke is an 88, and the throttle body is different.

Is the fuel spray a nice clean cone of fuel or dribbling some.
Could also be injector or low fuel pressure.
