how heavy is your ute no fuel? might be that its been set to rich or disconnect the choke. it may also be stuck. had that problem last winter.

Tis a common problem in the A-series at about 150,000 miles.
The valve guides are worn. Replacing the valve stem seals can help some, if you use the "ford" type (Umbrella) seals. If you use either o-ring type or "postive" seal type, it won't help at all.
Solution: New valve guides.
