Still wont start

I unflood it and it will want to start at first but then it just gets flooded out again. Ive tried using 2 cycle oil mixed with the gas. and use lightning grease (degreaser) to unflood it. And that doesnt do anything. Can somebody please help.

Why would you use degreaser to unflood your engine? Thats pretty much doing to opposite (removing oil) of what you need to do (adding oil to improve compression).

Remove your lower plugs. Remove the EGI fuse. Crank the motor for a few seconds. Clean the plugs. Add a few squirts of oil. Replace the plugs. Crank for a few seconds. Replace EGI fuse and try to start it.

Have you got a fuel cut switch installed? After putting one in my car, I've never had issues starting it.

well i pulled the primary injectors up and watched them shooting fuel into the engine, shouldnt it be more of a mist pattern? that would explain why its getting flooded.
