Yesterday my battery died because of my subwoofers. I charged it for a couple of hours and came back and it had full power. When I went to start it, it wouldn't start. I tried pulling the EGI fuses and taking the top 2 spark plugs out and cranking it and putting them back. That didn't work. There are fuel on my spark plugs too and I smell fuel after I try starting it a few times. Does this mean my engine is flooded? or what can I do to get it to start?

It is probably flooded.

Pull out the leading spark plugs and put an ounce of oil into each hole. Turn the engine by hand a few times. Put in another ounce and repeat the turning. Now put the plugs back in and start the engine.

Alright doing that now, thanks.

I tried this a few times and he doesn't seem to be working. Do you think my fuel pump is shot?

I got it to start finally. I just charged the battery for a few more hours and then tried pulling the plugs and egi fuses out and puttting them back and let it sit over night. When I came back out in the morning it started right up but its running weird. I'm having the same problem I always have. I give it gas and the rpms drop and bounce between 1 grand and 1700 and when let off the gas it idles at 2 grand or around there. Then if I try to put the car in gear the rpms drop and the car stalls. I have no idea what is causing this. I also sometimes have trouble accelerating past 3,500-4,000 rpms. I read that this is due to leaky or bad secondary injectors, but the other problem still has me clueless.

Yeah, if the battery was dead or weak then it would flood out everytime.

Sounds like you have a major vacuum leak issue. Check the linages around the throttle body to make sure they are not bindng up.

I checked them and they all seem to be fine. It's a really weird problem. It used to only do that when it rained but now it does it randomly anytime.
