Hard start

I'm working on a Hyster S100B gas forklift, I've replaced the plugs/Coil. and re-gaped the points. the only way to get this thig started is to pour gas down the carb hold choke for about three rounds and pedal wide open, and it will fire off at idle and run like that for a few minutes seems like it picks the LP gas up then still have to let it warm up for a while before you have gas pedal. Any ideas? Thanks
