Hi. If it has a carburetor I'd say the choke pull off isn't working right. If your engine is controlled by a computer I'd say that something is telling the computer that the engine is cold. Very cold. like the wire came off of one of the temp senders. Or possibly the temp sender wire is touching ground somewhere. Lots of engines have 2 temp senders one for the gauge and one for the computer.
Have you replaced your air cleaner lately. It could be real dirty.
