Firing issue

Let me guess, it was a warm day and it sat for 10-15 min and it was hard to start and felt like it was kinda flooded for a min or two right?
Ran like crap after it started and then cleared up?

The Eddie carbs do that a lot, and especially with the ethanol fuel.
Carb spacers help, but don't completely solve it.
Some people swear that a fuel return line helps or solves it.
