I just went through two carbs and paid particular attention to the seating of the power valve, the mating of the body and throttle plate and the needle valve and seat and float.
I test ran them on an engine and found no problems starting when hot.
As stated, an over rich condition requires that the throttle be held open while cranking to achieve a fireable mixture.
Thanks for the mention above.
