suzuki vitara - carb issues.. meant to be EFI?

[GeX]

hi. anyone on here know suzukis well? Got a vitara here on an L plate. Having problems with it.

It'll run for a minute or two and then stop. Then it won't restart other than a split second cough. If you leave it a bit, then try - it'll fire up.

So we've looked up the workshop manual for it, and found its meant to have EFI.

but here is what is in the engine bay;

i'm not really sure what to do with carbs, i'm EFI kind of person so this is all alien to me. Have tried opening the auto choke butterfly to see what happens there, and nothing changed much.

Any suggestions, or even help working out why this car has this engine in it and why it hasnt got EFI!!

Sounds like fuel supply issues so check filters, pump for decent flow, blocked lines, dirt in the carb, that kind of thing

aye. bob on there. it the pipe into the fuel filter was full of crud. got a new filter for it, and she fired up right away
