The first start of the day is always rough. I have to use the manual choke to start/stabilize it. Then after I let her run at idle for a few minutes and put it into first she acts like she is going to stall for a second and then comes back to normal. After she's fully warmed up she runs like a champ. Could my carb need some adjusting or is it electrical?

I dont think its electrical just make small adjustments on the idle air mixture and how you use the choke.
