84 vette

I bought an 84 vette, and it has a carburetor, 4 barrel. My problem is it is hard to start. Once it's started,it will start right up anyother time during the day. I've heard , to replace the fuel pump to a upgrade. Help

Could simply be that the choke is not working correctly. If it run okay once started, hard to believe the fuel pump is messed up.

RE: 84 vette

Do you know what carb is on it? Is it a quadrajet? Quads have a nasty habit after a while of well plugs leaking gas from the bowl and emptying the carb of fuel and causes extended crank times until fuel bowl is full.
