Car: 85 gl hatch with a ea 81

Okay so here's what is happening i just tested this my car it will not run with the choke open but if i pull the chokes fuse and have it shut it runs just fine just a little underpowered from the lack of air because of the choke being on but i dose not die like if the choke was open. so what the hell is happening

Engine is waay lean for some reason.Probably a vacuum leak.Put a vacuum gauge on it.

 

Could be fuel starvation too.Check the fuel level in the carby sight glass.
