Greg,
The 'starting right up' is probably due to other stuff rather than the fuel system. The things I did to get mine starting better were to replace the old ignition coil and primarily do a lot of cleaning. The connections at the starter on the line from the battery and the ignition were really dirty, and the ignition connection was old, corroded and loose. I replaced the connector, sanded and cleaned everything and it made a huge difference. (Used emory paper to sand it down, and a contact cleaner spray to clean/degrease afterwards.)
I also went around and cleaned all the electrical contacts between the voltage regulator, the coil and the generator.
Finally, all of this won't matter much if you don't have clean, unfouled, properly gapped plugs, good wires and properly set timing.
After all of that, you'll probably start very well. If that doesn't do it, the final fix is a $10 relay that takes care of a voltage drop at the ignition switch (most likely). You can search the boards for stuff on 'hot start' issues. This might not exactly be the problem - if you've tried everything else above and still have issues, it might be good to summarize again how everything is working and posting back before trying something else.
Good Luck!
Jason
