The choke may need adjusting??? To a slightly richer setting?
My 292 started easily hot or cold, but the main jets were a few sizes too large. After changing the main jets I had to set the choke very slightly richer, to more easily start & idle the engine when it was still warm after driving, but not yet cold.
