Unhappy 89 gtu problem

Hey what's up all. I just picked up a gtu for a steal. The guy said he was driving it one day, and everything was great. The next day he went to start it, and it was hard to start. he Finally got it started, but it was barking out smoke and running really rough. The next time he tried starting it, it wouldnt start. The only time it would start is if he gave it a lot of gas, when he let off the gas it would die. This sounds like it's running Very rich, or flooded to me. Am I right? or is this something more serious. If anyone would like to help me, mail me at yournissanisslow@aol.com. Thanks a lot.

At first I was thinking its flooded ... but then you said he has to give it a lot of gas to get it running?

If thats the case, then I dunno.

Try the unflooding procedure and see if that helps any.
