I dont think mine is quite as bad as an hour or two, but if the Q jet on my Olds 455 in my wagon sits overnight you have to crank it for a good 7-10 seconds to get fuel into the bowls and get it started. As soon as it gets fuel it fires right up.

I recently rebuilt the carb that is on there and it made a huge difference. But I didn't do anything to the well plugs. So Ive been wondering if maybe they are leaking. It also probably has a 40+ year old fuel pump so it wouldn't surprise me if it had seal issues.

That said, even my Firebird which has an electric pump and fuel injection, it has to crank for a second after it has sat. Not nearly as long as the wagon with the carb, but more than if it had been running an hour or two before. As has been mentioned here before the ethanol blend fuel does evaporate quickly.
