Ok so I have a 83 Ram D150 with a 318 2 barrel. When I first got it from my grandfather it ran great but for almost the last year it has had a problem starting. When I try to start it I have to crank it 4-6 times before it will start and when I get it started I have to stay on the gas or else it will kill. After it gets warmed up it runs fine and will start right when I turn the key the first time. But if I let it sit more than a few hours the engine will get cold and I will have the same problem. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for any help
