2nd gen starting

ok heres the thing i have a question, please no rookies and freakin ten year dumbasses....

besides a dying starter, bad alternator, battery and possible leaky injectors, what would be another cause for the 87 N/A-M/T to constantly flood...

and if you get it started, it would stutter then die when the brake pedal is applied, or a major electrical is turned on like the head lights for instance

the car is all stock, and a base model, no power window, or cruise, or any add ones, basic off the line...

Vacuum leak? Brakes are vacuum assisted.. so, it could be drawing more vacuum when you hit them. It could also be low compression. I'd check the compression first, then diagnose your vacuum leak if you have one.

Low compression is the number one reason for flooding easily
