Default rough starts when warm.. 87 civic

I have an 86 Civic 1.3 carb -

when cold my car starts scary fast, doesnt even crank really it just "turns on"

when warm my car takes a good 8-12 sec of cranking before slowly turning over

i usually floor the gas for a couple seconds and that is what gets it going...

not really a problem at the moment, it has ALWAYS started, just figured I may be able to band-aid the problem from becoming worse.

thanks

carb is rich. Check to see if the auto choke is sticking.
