1st, starter fluid is hard on your car. 2nd, sounds like it could be the plugs or something else electrical, does it start when you turn it off and then re start it hot?

wow all the time...I mean once in awhile is okay to use starter fluid but like everyday...okay check your lines into and out of the carb...check the battery...all the electrical wires...dist...spark plug wires and spark plugs...but check the plugs first...you might have one hell of a carbon build up on them...I suggest ngk titanium 4 prong plugs...they work wonders!!...try these if they didn't help any come back I'll give you a couple more suggestions.
