Default 4 Ever 2 Start

I am having a problem when the DS hasn’t been running 4 a couple of days it takes 2 to 3 mins before it wants to start and even then I have to hold the throttle a little to baby it right along. I am pretty sure it's a Fuel problem but I could be wrong. Any Help?

Once it gets started and warm will it stay running??? I would put money on it that you need to have your valves adjusted.

Once it is warmed up it is no problem running or starting. It's only when it sits for more than a day.

Adjust your valves... my money says they need it. If you don't want to do it yourself it should cost you around $150 at the shop.
