Nah!
That’s not it!
If the carb was draining over night then upon start up any left over fuel in the engine would be flushed out the tailpipe from all the cranking needed to fill the fuel bowl back up.
He never complained about a long start, he complained about the running condition.
It’s simply a choke problem.
