I did a search and couldnt find an answer to my question so here goes.When I start my 73 Thing for the first time of the day I can turn the key and it starts right up without hitting the gas.After the engine is warm, when I turn the key the engine turns for about ten seconds and then starts with a pump of the gas.Its almost like its flooded.It starts every time but its slow.Any suggestions for fixing this issue.

When warm if everything is right it should start without pushing gas down at all or by slowly pushing down gas pedal while cranking engine. Try adjusting your automatic choke.
