everyone please read gsl-se problem

Hello i bought a gsl-se and let it sit thought it was flooded and now it just cranks and cranks . Just replaced the starter so i pretty sure its not bad , and put brand new NGK plugs in please help. put starter fluid in intake changed plugs and it seems not to be reciving gas, It seems to be showings symptoms of leaking or not closing all the way injectors, or a bad fuel pump, bad fuel pressure or fuel filter . I havent check gas tank or anything but spark and air

Not following, does it have spark? Are the plugs wet, smell like gas? have you squirted any oil into the plug holes to seal and build compression? Deflood procedure.

Has spark , plugs are wet , smell like gas , Ive tried the complex unflooding proceedure but it didnt really seem to turn over . I think its not getting any fuel or the injectors wont close what do you think?

If the plugs are wet then you have no fuel issues. What do you mean by not turning over?

White smoke equals WATER.
.
Side seals may be bad.
.
Let it run until warm (10-15 minutes). If white smoke stops when warm, shut it off, let it cool down completely and repeat. If white smoke on 2nd start-up, then it is definitely bad seals.
.
If white smoke doesn't stop after warm-up on 1st try then it is definitely bad seals.
.
Rebuild engine!
