Elite S Hard Starting

2000 Elite S is hard to start after sitting for a few days. Acts like it is not getting enough gas but who knows??? Seems like the electric choke is working because when it does start it revs up and then down to idle after warmed up. Runs great but hard to start. Any help????

check compression? check the spark plug color?

Clean out your fuel valve.

That is a good suggestion. You mean the one under the gas tank that the fuel line comes from and vacuum line goes to, right??
