The way I was taught in smog school was to; leave the plugs out, no choke, wide

open throttle (unplug the coils so no spark. we don't want any underhood fires)

and crank it for 15-20 seconds. It will sound funny with no plugs.

if you have a friend, have them crank while you watch the plug holes for liquid spray.

liquid meaning fuel.

Yeah,that way works good too.I forgot about that one.I used it a couple of times.Its fun watching fuel pore out of your engine.Just make sure the EGI or pump fuse is pulled.EFI is EGI and Carb is pump fuse.

I checked the fuses in the car and the only one that I would think would do anything is the engine fuse. I tried that and no luck. On the panel there is no fuel related fuse, that I know of.

Any help????

ON yours it must be the engine fuse.If the plugs come out smelling and dripping gas then then still prolly flooded.Pull the plugs and fuse then crank it with the coil wires pulled out.You should see gas after a couple of cranks come out the plug holes.
