[QUOTE="kofkorn, post: 394856, member: 7076"] If you really suspect that it's flooded, then open the throttle wide, no choke and pull it about 10 or 15 times. If you hear it kick once or twice, keep going. Be prepared to slow the throttle down quickly if it fires. That should move most of the extra fuel out of your carb and motor. If that doesn't work, flooding isn't likely your problem. Try starting it using your normal procedure. After a 12 hours, there's a good chance that the extra fuel has already worked it's way out of the carb and system. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
