System got jacked and wont start part II

Well I'm still fucked fellas. For the new posters on this my cd player and subs got stolen out of my car and now wont work at all. The engine was flooded and I followed the directions of some of the good people on this board, and got it deflooded. Now my current problem. Besides the fact that my battery dies often (Most likely one of the wires after they ripped out the radio has been draining it). But I'll turn on the car and it idles kind of speratically, but whenever I put it in to drive or reverse she just stalls out and dies on me. The next time I crank her up she hardly starts or doesn't start. I noticed before that it sounded like one of the spark plugs was missing the spark. I checked the fuel lines and I'm getting fuel to the engine, it just doens't add up. There could be impurities or they could've poured something into the gas tank so I added some heet and that still didn't solve it. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

yah I most likely will have to bring it to a shop if I can't get it working pretty soon. i just wanted to mess around with it myself before i put it into someone elses hands. especially when so many places don't know **** about rotary. but i was actually thinking the same about the vaccuum leak. i'll look into that. thanks a lot.

Word of advice.. Whoever your insurance company is, I know AllState offers Audio Equipment Insurance. Its $50 for $1,000.00 (Or $1,250.00, I can't remember), and $90 for $2,500.00 for insurance. Thats for 6 months. I have something like $1,200 in my car. I pay $50 for the 6 months of coverage. For $100 a year, I got coverage on it if it is stolen. All I need to do is callem up and they will hand me cash for whatever is stolen.
