Maybe you've got some snot in your carbs, and when you bleed the gas it just clears it out or gets it out of the way. I'd take the carb apart just to see what was going on in there. Then again, I'm a glutton for that kind of punishment.
Use some of this stuff next time you fill up: http://www.seafoamsales.com/motor-treatment.html
It's like Drain-o for motors. It might make your exhaust smoke a little bit at first but that's just all the shit blowing out of your fuel system.

Sometimes in humid conditions you need to prime the motor to get everything moving properly. You could also try "sure start" which you spray in the pipe. Basically ether

seafoam is a good place to start. If it helps the problem, you've at least narrowed it down to the fuel system.

sure start is ether. so yes. Back when I had the shitty snowblower, that was the only way I could get it to start if it was below 20. It's also useful if you happen to find yourself in Circus Circus.

i've had it happen before. it wouldnt start with a full tank. so I bled the gas and it cam out all purple. the color of the oil, then lightened up toward the straight gas color. Then ran fine.
