Your engine is FLOODED due to a drippy injector. The manual says to hold
the pedal to the floor and crank it for up[ to 15 seconds at a time. It
will start with a sputter and a puff of smoke. Run a can of Techron
injector cleaner thru it OR a couple tanks of good Gasohol. It's
explained in the manual, but you'd never expect it to be flooded, would
you?
