I have 2 of that vintage. One has a 390 and one has a 460. I find that the replacement modules can be suspect. It could also be a float that dropped or a bad needle and seat that is flooding the engine after the it is shut off. There is fuel pressure feeding into the motor and flooding it if you leave it off long enough. When it is off a long time, this fuel evaporates and so it doesn"t flood.I bet you have to have your foot on the floor to start it when it is acting up. Check the carb and replace the needle and seat.
