Tony,
I believe the gas in the carburetor is leaking into the intake manifold and
possibly evaporating. Also the fuel pump could be weak and does not get
enough gas to the carburetor which is another reason it is hard to start. But I
am not a mechanic, just a tinkerer of sorts.

My '65 Crown will
not start after sitting overnight. If I pour gas or use starting fluid,
it starts right up. Once it's running, it's fine and can be restarted
normally all day. If the car sits for several hours, I have to
prime it again. I don't seem to be able to pump gas into the carb for
start up. Would this be the accelerator pump in the carb? The car
runs great once started. There is not gas leaking into the oil that I
can tell.
Also, I am trying
to find a new choke pull off for the Carter 4 barrel. The one I have
must have a bad diaphragm. Local auto parts stores are no
help. Thanks - Tony
