So my engine has been flooded to hell from sitting in my garage/shell for a year.

Finally got it cleared out after days of turning it over with no plugs in it and my Sprint RE unplugged.

It started and ran for about 2 minutes with little to no smoke at all.

I kept the revs at 2k by holding the gas because I really didn't want it to stall.

All of a sudden it started to sputter so I gave it more gas and it continued to stall.

Tried to restart it with no luck.

Pulled a plug and it smelled gassy and was black, but not wet. (brand new plugs)

There was a little gas that was about 2 years old in the bottom of the tank that I left and added my premix gas to it + a little extra oil for the straight gas already in the tank.

I'm almost 100% sure this is a fuel problem.

Could it be leaky or malfunctioning fuel injectors?

Gunked up fuel filter?

Possibly fuel sock?

Thanks in advance to any feedback.

If I go to your place and serve you 2 year old KFC,would you eat it?.
I'd be checking the tank and flushing the fuel system.
There is a 14mm drain nut on the tank,passenger side,bottom.

You're on the right track. Especially with that advice. ^

Replace the gas, fuel sock, fuel filter, fuel hoses, and have the fuel injectors professionally serviced. That tank may have some serious gunk or even rust in it. Hopefully you don't have to replace the tank, hard lines, or fuel pump.
