Question

Is it possible to rescue the plugs if the engine has been flooded with them in ? I.E. can u burn the fuel off then decarbourise them or anything ?
Also when the engine has been flooded how do u get it back to normal ? Remove plugs & wait for it to evapourate or what ?

Either wait about three days when it will eventually clear or just take out the plugs, remove crank sender connector, crank car to expel fuel, clean and dry plugs then refit. If it won't start don't ever touch the throttle as you will flood it for sure.
