Question 1990 GLX-GTU wontstart-flooding

Hey,

I have a 1990 glx-gtu Lot's of problems, I just had the tranny rebuilt,all vacuum's redone, oil change, spark plugs & wires and the os2 sensor changed, now the car does better. It tries to crank, and everything feels normal, but u smell really bad gas from exhaust and engine bay but I have no leaks that ive found. But the car just doesnt start it tries really hard then it just nothing happens im getting frustrated angry and mad... This is my baby and if she doesnt work shes gonna rust away and I dont want to sell her ive had offers lots... But I want her to run thats it and I was wondering if anyone would know the problem. I missed the club meeting in Knoxville cause of this. Don't want to miss the next! But everything seems normal the only real problem i discovered is... the vacuum diagram is kind of confusing. But I took off the Intake,Throttle,Plentum and the horn i discovered this black line that has 5 vacuum hoses lines but not the hose! I asked numeros people noone knows, the repair manual never says anything about it. And I even called the mazda dealership and talked to a mechanic. Still nothing if anyone needs pictures to help me find the problem so that it runs again! I will gladly do so. But if anyone knows pm me or reply to the post!

Thanks,

Van-Gota-RX-7

are you getting spark? If it flooding all the time and you've already done the fuse removal deflood procedure then you might want to confirm that you have spark. If you don't have spark then you can narrow it down.
