Default Engine hunting

Ho Peeps, I have a weird scenario with my 2.0 dohc I4. It ran out of fuel tonight so I put some more in - fresh fuel straight from the pump. When I restarted it (it was cold at the time) it ticked over at about 1000 rpm - previously it was ticking over at about 800. After a minute or so it started hunting eg revving to about 2K then falling back to 1k before revving back up again. I turned it off after a few seconds of this - I don't have the rad connected yet so don't want to push my luck. If I open the throttle it seems to be ok but just does not want to tick over properly. Anyone got any ideas?
I just knew it was too good to be true
