My Car Foolds 24/7!!!

Ok this is really starting to p*ss me off. My 86 gxl has its flooding probebls here and there. But today is the worst. I can not get it to start. I have oil good plugs, gas, ect.

So when i tried to start it again nothing happend just chirpped (flooded) So i to the fuse trick. That always works for me. It did not this time. After about 10 min off playing with it it finally started up But a few seconds of it running the idle when down and it just died!

Now i cant get it to start worth sh*t!!!! This has never happend to me. Can anybody give me ideas on what to fix? Im thinking its the injectors

Cause i really need to be driving my car by tomorow and im starting to really sell my rx-7 because of reliable issues...

First push start it. Then check the injectors to see if they be leaking.

Injectors are probably the problem. How many miles are on the vehicle?

You might want to send your injectors off to get them properly cleaned, or just buy new ones. They are most likely leaking gas into the engine while the car is off, thus floodind the engine.

In the mean time, try pulling your spark plugs and cranking the engine. This will send the gas in the motor out through the spark plug holes.
