    An air leak at or around the intake manifolds may be one cause of this

    Or a bit lean, or the enricher diaphragm/circuit is playing up,or an exhaust/muffler air leak.
    , or the idle mixture screw needs a tweak, or valve clearances are out.
    Download/get a manual.

    start it up and spray engine start around the boot/carb area, if it revs on her own then theres a leak.

    NO Don't do that

    If you have a leak, you will be running lean, and that's a great receipe for burning a hole in your piston
