Re: Starting issue
It sounds like the gas is bleeding out of the bowl in the carb when it sits or the fuel pump may be getting tired.
If you have a quadrajet with the long paper filter, the filters that have the check valves on the inlet end help hold gas in the carb and even fuel in the line.
My 77 C30 has to have bit of starter fluid help once in a while if it sits too long and that one neverleaves the yard unless it has an actual job to do. At 8200 lbs empty it sucks gas like crazy.
I'd very honestly change any and all rubber gas lines in the fuel system and use the new hose that is rated for today's gas.
