Price check on Vagiclean, aisle five. I repeat: price check on Vagiclean, aisle five. That's Vagiclean. We've got a customer down here with a full-on fallopian fungus. I'm baking a loaf of bread and I think it's sourdough.
So basically, I parked it for a few days. Went to go start it and it ran like total and complete shit. I said "fuck it" and parked it for a few hours, then I came back to the shop. Went to go start it and nothing happened. Brought it in the shop and changed the fuel pump fuse and relay. Nothing. Fuck. It was late and I was tired. Went home. Came back the next morning, changed the fuel pump, fuse and tried another newer relay. Nothing.
It was really cold out, so I put the battery on the charger overnight and went home. It was cranking really hard, almost like it had a weak battery, but not really. Hard to explain, but I did take a video with my phone. Came back today and pulled the plugs. Flooded. Sure as fuck isn't gonna run like that. Put the plugs in the parts washer for a few minutes. Popped 'em back in and it runs.
I think my whole problem was a shitty battery. Ugh.

Woah woah woah... same problem as me I think. So if the plugs were "fouled" how did you remedy that? I just put new plugs in as of like August... dont want to buy more!
And also, how did you get the fuel out? just crank it with plugs out?
First, make sure your battery connections are good (yes, overstated, but my dad seems to think that having shitty connections were my problem all along.)
The plugs were soaked with fuel and car sounded REALLY weak. I put the battery on the charger (while connected to the car) and yanked the plugs out and cranked it (not for long mind you, maybe five seconds at most.) I stuck the plugs in my parts washer and dried/wiped them off really well. Installed them and started right up. However, due to having all that fuel in the chamber while not firing, your oil will thin out and mix with fuel and the car will smoke like crazy. You will need to also do a full oil change.
Hope this gets your problem solved. Sounds very similar to my issue, so I wouldn't be surprised if we had the same issue!
