Hard to start when cold

My carbed TA is hard to start when cold
It dosn't seem to get any gas until i crank it for about 7 seconds. Once it starts it will start fine all day!

I had repalced my carb with a refurbed unit. I still needed to adjust idle misture and the choke vacuum brake. I believe after some idle screw adjustment that I now hav ehte engine starting after two pumps and about 3 sec of cranking. I still need to fine tune the vacuum brake. Now that the mornings are cooler I will get it set right
