What does whirl mean? Have you tried holding pedal down to start when it does this?

Yes I did hold pedal down it will strart then and will start every time until I drive it for 20 to 30 min. Stop it and try it it will start but if I leave it for
30 min or so it takes too or three time to start with pedal down
