my 2oohp v6 has always started right up with the shifter in neutral with no throttle.
now it floods instantly
the starter will turn a few cranks and then starter backs down after what sounds like maybe one cylinder firing
if i pull the spark plugs and blow out the gas, dry them and put them back in,
same thing as described above, but then if I open the throttle, it will finally fire up. runs great once running! but the rest of the day, it is full throttle to start!
seems like this all started after an over heat (water pump failure), which i then rebuilt water pump, fuel pump, replaced head gaskets, thermostats and all hoses
do you think it could be reed valves? do you have to split the block to put a new set of reeds in?
