If you have really good spark, bright blue that will jump 3/16 or an inch you can eliminate spark except where you may have voltage drop due to starter draw. So take an old plug and spread the gap and have someone crank it while you check. Also check timing. If it's good while cranking then move on to fuel, vacuum or compression. As you were told check to make sure the choke is fully closing. If your engine is worn the long crank could be low compression. As you crank it's getting oil on the cylinders and that will increase the compression. If you don't have access to a compression testor you can pull the plugs and put about a teaspoon of oil in each cylinder, replace the plugs and try it. If it fires right away you have a compression issue with the rings. If it's a valve problem it will not help.
