I have a 1996 chevy tahoe, It runs fine while its running, but when you turn the engine off and wait about 2 or 3 hours it will not start unless you pour gas in the carbarator.

Hi, if you have the spider fuel system, the fuel poppets may need cleaning. If you haven't already, use a gage and check proper fuel pressure. Some of the national brand autostore used to loan out a fuel pressure gage, if you don't have one.
