Armchair diagnostics- hard warm start

[John Soliday]

...I took a small straight blade screwdriver and cut off the handle, left
just enough to grab onto.  It's in my special "carb tools" bin.

Hmm... It kinda always does (the wifey has complained about it before). I'm
thinking (initial diagnostics) are to reset the idle screws a bit leaner (2
turns?). I've avoided messing wiht the carbs because they're such a
difficulty getting in and out, but I may just have to 'suck it up princess'
(as a couple buddies have been know to say), and just do it, damn the
difficulty.

Maybe I'll see if I can dig up a right angle screwdriver and really do it
the easy way...
