ok so it sounds like the car is flooded jus tturns and turns but usually i get a least like a spark that i can hear but this time i got NOTHING just turn turn turn. i took out the fuel pump fuse and EGI turned and turned put them back in and nothing now im thinking to take out my plugs but since its at my GF house i dont have alll the tools that i have at home. what got me flustered was the fact that i didnt hear one spark at all usually i get some effort on the engines part and they just cahnged the plugs and coils and seafoamed it at mazda since the last time it flooded i let mazda take care of it

waht else can it be i want to take this piece home im getting really tired of the flooding i just want to take it home at this point and leave it there. i read the sticky on flooding and just did the simplest since i was there.

May want to try draining out the fuel in the housing via the DIY on deflood and clean off your spark plugs. Flooding causes them to get oil and crap on them so they don't want to spark. After you get it running, drive the hell out of it to help further clean off your plugs and blow the crap out of the rotor housing.

I meant to blow out the oil, fuel, and carbon that is sitting in there right now, not to blow your motor

I haven't read the DIY deflood in a while, but I think it says to pull the plugs to drain it
