95 s10 4cyl is flooding when starting - 1995 Chevrolet S-10 CA Edition

First using a pressure gauge, check fuel pressure before starting. Pressure should be between 45-60 psi. Check TPS to be sure it is not sending a flooding signal to computer. If you hold the pedal to the floor, it sends a flood message and shuts off the fuel.

Probably not the crank sensor if it is firing.
You can disable the fuel pump and try to dry it out if you think it is flooded. Then find out why.

Crank sensor or Direct ignition module. Read trouble codes with Tech2.

Timing is off.

Connect a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel line and check the fuel pressure. If it exceeds manufacturers specifications; replace the fuel pressure regulator.
Spark plug cables which have aged, and now have more han 1,000 ohms resistance per inch of length, also can lead to cylinder flooding; and should be replaced.

burning extra fuel hard starting flooding out

put it in a warm garage with the hood up and let it dry out.(this is cheaper than ANY alternative.if you aint got a garage and the car was hot when flooded it should dry out within a couple of days.....i hope.

Yes I know, but If you hold the accelerator pedal to the floor on a fuel injected car, the Throttle position sensor will tell the computer to enter clear flood mode. Then the computer will shut off the fuel injectors while you have the pedal to the floor. If it is flooded, you should be able to get it started in clear flood.

I just went through this same issue and it turned out to be the engine cooling sensor, a $50 part.

its a sensor
