Default Artic Cat 500 auto starting problem

Despite cleaning the carb and replacing the plug, cold starting is almost impossible without starter fluid. Once it is warm, there is no problem. I'm thinking it might have to do with fuel needing to be really pumped a distance.
Any ideas?

Welcome to the forum. If you haven't already done it, try posting your question in the Arctic Cat section to get a better answer.
