so say the plugs are not wet anymore and i am getting the same problemwith it not wanting to start unless i do the clutch and gas pedal flooring. could it be the wires? the car has 120,000 miles on it and the wires have sticky **** on them
and inside one of the connectors that goes to the spark plug had a black burned spot on it the other 3 were silver and shinney. the motor acts to be in good shape runs like a champ

Well take out the fuel pump fuse and and let the car run until it dies, then remove each spark plug 1 by 1 and check the spark by turning it over for just a second or 2, make sure the spark plug is grounded though. If they all spark just fine and the spark plugs are dry then you my friend have another problem lol.

Edit: If you have to push the gas pedal down to get it to start, your wires simply wouldnt be it, if you didnt have a good spark I dont see how adding more fuel would help them out. It'd simply flood the car again. Try just taking the fuel pump fuse out and try and start the car without the gas pedal and report back.

I'm not sure if your talking about the fuse itself or where the fuse box is located...its just right under the dash on the driver side, cant miss it. As far as the fuse, look at the fuse box cover and it shows what each fuse is...It'll say "fuel pump" just pull that.
