Getting WORST!

Heres the situation... I got an 88 turboII with rubuilt 80k motor, 160 on the chasis. Its was pretty hard to start up sometimes. Would crank for like 5-6 sec before it started. But sometime it would just not crank at all. I would have to wait for about half an hour to an hour before i can try to start it agian. and wen it starts theres a HUGE amount of smoke. BUT NOW IT DOESNT EVEN START AT ALL!!!! Been trying for 2 days but wont even crank. radio and lights work tried jumping the car. Thought i was flooded so tried taking out EGI fuse, but wont even crank. Even tried push starting... HELP PLEASE

IT may still be flooded regardless of trying to push it. A really flooded rotary will have to be pulled down the street in gear to start or be left alone for a few days to dry out. First of all make sure all the little things are fine such as spark plugs, wires, getting fuel, etc. These all probably work alright. Just get it pulled down the street. You can start almost any rotary that way.
