Hi Dave,
Do you leave it at full choke after it starts? After my B starts, I
push the choke knob back in until it runs a bit raggedly, then pull it
out a bit until it smooths out. That's where I leave it until it speeds
'way up, then push it back in a bit more, keep this up until the knob is
all the way in. Don't usually drive it 'til it's off the choke.
Cheers,
CR
