Unhappy really hard starting after 2 weeks

Hey, I've had the car sitting about two weeks now. I went out to go start the rx-7 and it was a shard as **** to start! What I did is shut the fuel switch OFF, cranked it until the fuel ran dry. Then I cranked it with the fuel switch ON, for about 2-3 seconds. I then switched it back OFF, it started right away, then flipped the switch and it ran. But why in the hell would it do this?? Iknow they're prone to flooding. Was it because it sat so long? Should I be checking spark??
voltage? help!
