My fathers JD 265 with a Kawasaki would occasionally starve for fuel last summer. Is it vapor locking or starving for fuel?

By rights the tank should be removed and cleaned but I hate working on lawn mowers almost as much as I hate cutting grass. On the subject of Kawasaki's, I always found this one seemed to need to be cranked excessively to get it to start. Is that the nature of them? I did find that the throttle/choke linkage wasn't adjusted properly and the choke was only partially coming on and when adjusted that helped some but I still think it takes more cranking then it should to get it going.
