Ok, starter fluid did nothing at all. The clue here is that when the engine was totally deflooded, when I put the fuse back in and tried to start it the first time, AGAIN I heard this odd burp sound that sounded like liquid was trying to flow through something clogged under me when I was in the drivers seat and then it almost started by could not. I did the spray with started fluid again and this time AGAIN with a deflooded engine the first try to start it ended up in a BURP again and almost started then just cranked! INTESTINGLY ENOUGH, on these occasions I pushed the car to another location in my long garage and noticed a clue; in the very middle of the car on the concrete floor there was a 3 inch gas stain that just leaked out! So I have a gas leak! What on Earth do I do!? And why did I get I to begin with!? Could that have been the problem from the start? How and where exactly does the gas line run from the fuel pump? Is there an exact diagram anywhere and obviously the car needs to be on a lift to diagnose this and to fix it. And how is it fixed and what will this cost me? HELP Satch!

Hi...thanks....I assume you mean on the car body and not on the garage floor. Doing so is difficult with no lift. If you meant on the garage floor, then YES, that should be easy next time I attempt this! Thanks for your input and your absolutely phenomenal site! It is just full of knowledgable great people that card! Have a great weekend! David
