I'm going to take a stab at it and say the translation for that is: it runs rich and floods. Test drive the car and let it warm up fully, then try to restart. Flooding is most common on hot-starts.

Sounds like something the seller made up because he/she doesn't know much about how cars run.

What are the problems/symptoms?
