well of course you'd rather it be flooded than need something expensive like that. im just saying you dont want to be cranking the living daylights out of your starter for days on end with the assumption its flooded when it could be something else. good luck, and like i said if you need a hand im almost certain i have the afternoon off tomorrow i can drive out and help you if need be, just PM me if thats the case.

Both times I've flooded mine after taking it out of storage, I've got it going by hooking up a jumper vehicle and cranking the car for 6-8 second intervals with my foot floored on the accelerator for about 8 times consecutively, on the 8th try lift partway through the crank and it comes to life
If it doesn't start dont continue to crank with your foot off the accelerator, resume the foot floored(dry cranks), for another 8 times until you have success and it starts.
After its running dont release the clutch or give it gas, as it will liekly stall, just let it warm up and let the smokeshow begin
