For the past couple weeks I have been having problems....my car would suddenly drop in RPM while I still had the gas on...and then leap back up (little jerking effect)...well tonight it did it two times and then it just dropped to zero and then would not restart...any ideas?

Sounds like your either loosing fuel or spark.

Thats all I can say.

Its possible that it is flooded now, but your question should be if the engine is flooded then why did it flood in the first place?

Well I finally got some new sparkplugs and I just pulled them out and well...they were not what I was expecting....they were black and sandy colored but they were not wet....



Now I am watching the kids and I cant put the new ones in and I am wondering...did my engine really flood or did it die....what are your thoughts???
