'79 245 hard starting 200

Still having some problems with this 245. It wasn't hardly running when I bought it. So far have replaced-plugs,plug wires,dist cap and rotor,hard fuel line from tank[PO had just used a rubber hose],hose on in tank pump,timing belt,air filter, o rings on injectors, o rings on injector holders and flame trap.
Usually when I go out to start it of a morning, about 6 to 10 rpm's and it starts right off. If I shut it off and restart within a minute or two, it is ok. Leave it longer and it takes for ever. Usually doing a 5 second starter time, it will take 8 to 10 times, but it will start. Usually sounds like it is hitting on one or two cylinders at first and then takes off. Like I said, it always starts, but takes for ever.
Thanks in advance
