Re: Does yours fire right up?

This is very common with quadrajets. All q-jets have epoxied plugs in the bottoms of the fuel bowl that are that way from the factory to seal up drill passages used during manufacturing. After 30 or 40 years, that epoxy breaks down and the fuel leaks out of the bowl causing hard starts because the lift pump has to fill the bowl again before fuel will get to your engine.
