Someone will need to pull the fuses and disconnect the major electrical components until you find the power drain. You use a meter or test light to watch the battery voltage. It could be anything from a stuck relay, to a short in the wiring.
There is a check valve inside the fuel pressure regulator that can leak off the necessary fuel pressure to start the engine quickly. Have it tested or just replace it.
Sounds like the starter to me(I assumed you meant won't crank when hot).I have replaced only 1 starter(on my neighbor's Taurus)in the 15 years after quitting the GM dealer tech job 15 years ago.I probably could make a career just changing GM starters and alternators.(I only have Mopars in my driveway!)
Carburetor needle and seat are most likely varnisized. Get a can of Berryman B-12 Chemtool. Put about 3 ounces into a quart of gasoline. Run it until it quits, let it sit for a few hours. Do it again. If it continues to run, still cut it off; let it sit over night. Add a gallon of gasoline and run it out. Put a manual shutoff valve between the tank and filter. BTW, you can't clean a paper gasoline filter,if that's the filter you cleaned.
The Berryman is mostly Acetone. You can use it at teh beginning of the season and the end of the season before you ut it to bed for cold weather. When you put it up shut off the fuel valve with it running and run it until it quits.
Also use StaBil and StarTron enzyme to help keep the linings of fuel
system clean of growth. This E-10 can reach "phase separation" much
faster than fuels without it.
something in the "always on" circuitry is pulling too much current. find the fuse for the power door locks and unplug it. that seems to be the most frequent cause of GMs needing a jump. if that does not work pull each fuse one by one until you have found the one which, when left out, lets the car start the next morning.
replace the IAC or clean it. If it doesnt open when you try to start your engine it will not start, after it cools down it may work and let it start Idle Air Control Valve
