Kay fuck so last night i go to put in proper headlights (and remove the cheapo shitty HIDs i had) so do that, finish up, and then decide i need to hear the car so start it... Wonderful. Runs for a short while then i kill it and leave.
I can't remember exactly what i was doing today but i went in to go start it again/drive.. No start. I turn the fuel pump off, turn it over a bit (do that twice) try starting again, kinda stumbles then dies off. Future attempts would fail, so fuck, we've got a flooded engine on our hands.
Pull plugs, clean off crank engine get fuel cloud out. Great, hook it back up, try to start.. not much. Actually wait, i got it to start decently once but then it died shortly after and after that doing the "simple" de-flood procedure gave no results. So we have a VERY flooded engine (losing compression on seals cause no oil or anything.) So i pull the plugs again, turn it over a bit, then put some 2-stroke oil in the plug holes. Can't say how much but a decent amount. Go to start it up - takes a second but it goes and pours out some smoke from the oil.. yay at least its started. I let it idle a bit to burn that off, and STUPID me, i adjusted the screw because i was playing with it before i don't know why, but i just made it idle with the oil in there.
After that burned off im guessing, the idle just ran away. as in started to rev high so i killed it as fast as i could. Adjust the screw down significantly, start it up, it starts fine, idles fine.. but on ONE ROTOR. FOR FUCK SAKES.
Too late to do anything more now but I guess tomorrow i'll try some trouble shooting. Fuck sakes though was running just fine and then a simple de-flood causes shit to go a-wire. No clue where to look. Last time the one-rotor fix was a new injector pigtail so that doesn't really help me much. Not sure where to look but fuck sakes.
Oh and im sure i flooded it again too
