warm-up regulator? humidity? hard starting

I am having a continuing startup issue.
In the morning, my '79 900 5door gle sometimes takes a minute or more of cranking to fire up. Upon firing, it takes 3-5 minutes for the idle to stabilize, or else it'll stall as soon as I step on the gas.
New Bosch battery has plenty of juice, no moisture in dist. cap. I've got a few spare W-U Regulators, but I can't say I've read any old posts that make me convinced that is the problem either (although this does seem like a "warm-up" issue to me).
ALso, this seems to be more prevalent as the heat and humidity increases to untolerable levels.
Should I swap Warm-up Regs? I've cleaned all -battery contacts to engine and frame. For some reason I couldn't get the sparkplugs out so I'll check them later once I get an extension for my wrench.
