What does the dashboard warning light of a car and key mean Car wont start unless you prime carbi with petrol?
First of all DO NOT USE PETROL to prime the carburetor. There is Starting Fluid expressly for that. Gasoline can and will explode. Starter fluid, us3ed correctly will cause enough "fire" in the cylinders to start the vehicle. The vehicle may not run due to lack of fuel. It is possible that the fuel system has a problem.
If you are having to prime the carburetor every time the car sits for awhile then the needle valve in the carb needs replacing or the float has a hole in it. Either way you will need to take the carb apart and repair it. Saying all this I doubt very seriously that your car has a carburetor. Carbs have not been used on engines for a very long time. The fact that you say you have a warning light of a car and key indicates you have a modern Toyota and that light is on because for some reason or another the ECU is not communicating with your remote key. I suspect you have a fuel delivery issue as the above answer stated. Seek professional help.
What else can I help you with?

What is a carbi on a car?
You are most likely talking about the carburetor on older engines.
Why does my Car turn off after going over bumps?
You may have a lose carbi and it would be sucking too much air and the mixture would be wrong.
Why can't you turn of headlights?
I've had this happen a few times when I warning flash other drivers of road hazards ahead, the immediate cure is to knock firmly on a largish blackbox near the carbi. I believe it to be a relay that probably has a small arc when activated that can temporarily weld the contacts together, the knock breaks this contact and the lights go out. Mines an 85 model btw.
How do you free a jammed Automatic choke?
usually what happens is the butterfly gums up with dirt/ soot looking stuff. grab a can of carbi cleaner and an airline and blow out the throttle body. i usually use a rag or bit of paper towel to cover is so stuff doesn't fly everywhere cos carbi clean strips paint. whilst doing this i usually work the butterfly to get right in there. note: when starting the car it will cough and splutter for a few seconds cos of all the carbi clean you use. at the same time clean any linkages that are part of the choke system. cos they can sometimes stick depending on the setup. if it's a manual choke . ie a choke cable setup, check to make sure the cable hasn't seized of lack of lubrication.

Is it possible to Convert parsun 9.9hp to 15hp?
a 9.9hp can be converted into a 15hp by putting a 15hp carbi on the 9.9 or the little valve that letts the fuel through can be change to a bigger one off a 15hp but that only makes it a 12hp orso. to make it a 15 you need to change the megaphone or exhast whicth can be done but it is very hard. this gives it more power just like when you powerband on a motobike
Can a Toyota corona with stock engine use e10 fuel?
Hi, there i have a 1985 ST141 Corona with a 2SC leaded engine with 280,000kms on the clock. This motor car is bullet proof. Not a single problem in the 25 years i have owned it. Always kept the motor oil clean and used a lead replacement additive to each fill up. Been using one brand of e10 which is 95 RON. Engine runs like a watch on this fuel with no issues at all. No pinging or side effects to the fuel system. Carbi and rubber components are unefected. It doesn't like 91 e10 fuel at all. Fuel consumption went through the roof and power was noticeably down. Remember to retard the engine timing for lower rated RON fuels. I have set it at 5 deg BTDC. Loves Liberty e10 and is well priced. MOTOR MECHANIC for 26 years.
