Welcome to the forum. How long since a tune-up? There is a service bulletin, about cold start-up, concerning the spider fuel system. The fuel system may need cleaning, if it is the fuel system causing an issue? The cleaning procedure in the bulletin, is a shop procedure. The fuel poppets may need cleaning. I don't know if injector cleaner in the gas tank will help? Also, use a gage and check fuel pressure.
