Think its the apex seals, it had this prob where we had to pull the fuel injection fuse and try and start then put the fuse back in for it to start cuz it got flooded, now it jus don't start.

have your fuel injectors proffessionally cleaned. They are leaking/stuck.

Hmm i'll have to look at that, my dad knows more bout it then me, he said its apex's but i never asked why, i think he may have said it had low compression.

Another thing to do if its been sitting a while is to check the condition of your plugs,wires,cap and rotor too.You need alot of spark too get it running.
