83 750 Starting Issues.

Hello, I have an 83 Shadow 750 and am having issues getting the bike to start. Bike will sometimes fire right up and the rest of the time just turns over strongly but not start. Batt and rectifier have both been replaced. I get spark to all wires as well, but havent checked to see if the plugs are fouled. The bike will start everytime when its jumped also.

Found a small fuel leak in the line under the right side panel. A friend hinted I may be getting air in the line. I do get fuel up to the carb.

Any ideas as to what I should check next? I´m not sure if I have a electrical/starter/solenoid problem or a fuel issue. Thanks for the help!
