Question Dies Right After START

Every Morning or when my rig has been sitting for a few hours, The engine shuts off immediately after I start the first time...It usually takes two or three tries untill it stays on and idles properly. I just replaced the plugs, Dist Cap, rotor, wires, and cleaned the carb...Could it be the Fuel pump??? if not, what else could it be..I want to start with the cheapest problem and go from there....
Thanks in Advance

Dies Right After START

Mine does that too on occasion, and for the life of me I can't figure it out. I mean, it'll do fine for 6 months then it will act up for a couple weeks, then it will be gone. Usually a way around it is to have your foot ready on the gas and as soon as the engine turns over, give it some gas and it will stay on
