Then again, you may just need to change your starting technique.
1/4 inch choke pull is totally insufficient. Pull choke fully closed until engine fires, then immediately adjust choke to where engine is happy.
After sitting for a time, gas in carb evaporates so pumping the pedal doesn't do anything. Need to crank a while to refill the carb. Full choke will help.
You should have a glass bowl fuel pump. Do you see it full of gasoline? If so, you have gas to the fuel pump, just needs to push some to fill the carb.
