Not starting!

Last night I flooded out my RX7 than cranked it until the battery mostly died, jumped it from my wifes car (escort) and it cranked too slow (I think) with the vlauecragt battery she has. I have spark but it looks king of weak, is it new battery time and yes I did the de-flooding procedure already and even throttle body cleaner (I know its a big no no) but it did wind up once other than that it just cranked but not as fast as I normally hear it.

Help?

Jesse

Start with a fully charged battery and do the de-flooding procedure again.

I have cranked it with all four plugs out, should I leave my fuel pump off and try to start it, I have a separate switch?
