If you have to choke a warm engine, it's lean, not rich (flooding is too rich). Use an unlit Propane torch around the carburetor base, intake manifold, vacuum hoses etc. to find your vacuum leak. Then fix it. That hissing noise is caused by air getting into the engine that's not going through the carburetor to get the proper amount of gasoline mixed with it.
