Sure fire technique to unflood w/o removing plugs

Remove the rubber plug on the intake manifold where one would tap a boost gauge into.

Spray WD-40 for 4 seconds into this port. Crank engine and I guarantee you it will unflood and start right up.

It will also start an engine that's flooded with coolant too.

Wouldnt you have to spray it into both rotors, you would also need to spray into that vac line right next to the plug you are talking about. I've never used wd40 before. FD dont usually have problems with flooding, at least when everything is working.
