Default RE: stalls when cold

Do you know if this car has a carburetor or the multiport injection system. I think most, if not all, Excel's import into the U.S. had the injection system. I think most others were carbureted. If injected, I would first suspect the idle air control valve. If carbureted, a bad automatic choke would be the obvious problem, but I'd check for leaking vacuum hoses as well on both systems.
