RE: how do I unflood my engine?
pull the plugs, clean them off
the take out the fuel pump fuse and crank the engine over
crank it over for a while without plugs in it first
then put the dry plugs back in and crank it over (fuel pump still dissabled)

that sounds like a decent idea actually. dont worry i won't try it.
i hope the air doesn't condense into water in the cylinders as the temp drops while i let it sit with the plugs out.

that doesn't involve any fire though. fire is cool.
i was thinking about rigging up a turkey baster with a tube and sucking it up.
if i were to light the turkey baster when i'm done, it might work as a flamethrower.

I have no idea how it got flooded..
It hasn't started for a week. The vacuum line connector on my FPR broke, so I ran it a little while with that disconnected. I shut it down and since then it wouldn't start. The vac. line is fixed now though.
I have a misfire that I've been trying to fix, but that's hard to do when the car won't run. I'm getting a spark on all plugs, so I have no idea why the fuel didn't ignite.
I had the water pump and timing chain tensioner gasket replaced.. I really hope the mechanic set the timing right.. because I can't figure out what else could possibly be making it misfire.
