Easiest way to kill fuel on the GSL-SE is to unplug the blue connector on the trailing coil (should be the coil closest to the front of the car). With this unpluged, the injector won't sqirt fuel. Crank until it fires (help to hold the accelerator down). Once it starts, it will only run for a few seconds. Plug the connector back on and try to start normally.
I added a switch to mine to kill power to the fuel pump. This way, when it floods, I turn the switch off. I can then crank until fires and then switch back on when it starts. Make the process real easy. Can also add security if you hide the switch and turn it off everytime you park your car.
Hope this helps.

Yeah, when you add the kill switch. Just unplug that blue connector to get you going now. The kill switch you will need to either wire into the fuel pump relay (under the dash) or inline with the fuel pump power. Mine is like a 25 amp switch wired inline with the fuel pump power. You can trace the fuel pump power under the driver storage bin.
