it just flooded one day after it sat for like 2 days. then it started getting a rough start. i unflooded it put new plugs in it and it still does it. i have to hold the clutch and gas down to get it to start up. it wont start with just the clutch in. with the clutch in and the gas floored it starts but shoots out a lot of smoke like gas smell and the rpms are slugish for alittle bit. after it warms up the car is perfect vacum, has good idle right around 800. boost is good 10-8-10 drives fine, but once i turn it off and let it sit for about 30 minutes or somtimes longer or shorter it dosent want to start unless i hold the clutch and gas at the same time. thanks for all your help i really apprecite it

leaking injector?



here is a trick to check. Pull the primary/secondary fuel rail with the injectors/lines still attached. with somebody holding them out of their holes and watching the bottom of each injector, switch the car from off to on a few times, and leave it on the 'on' position. This will prime the fuel system. If your injectors are leaking then some fuel will squirt by the end of the injector. What could be happening is after you shut the car off this leak is allowing fuel to drip down into the motor, making it hard to start the next time.



If your injectors were leaking im confident that your idle would be *** and it wouldnt drive right so who knows whats goin on...
