88 Convertible wont start
After having what seemed like flooding issues late in the fall, I was able to get it started last Sunday after changing spark plugs and going through deflooding. It ran great on Sunday, started multiple times. Went to start it Monday morning and it would not start. I would like to get it out this w/e, but I'm not sure where to start. Any advice? Thanks.

I'd perform the deflooding procedure again first. If this is a common occurrence for you, you probably have leaky injectors or low compression.
You don't *necessarily* need new plugs immediately after deflooding (assuming you are using oil and not ATF), just know that they will foul quicker every time you do it. If you are using ATF it is probably a good idea to replace them.
