Hi guys, been away for two weeks so car hasn't moved for a little while. Got back Friday and started and Saturday with a few pops and bangs. Started yesterday but ran very rough, as though not firing on all cylinders. This morning turned over great but won't fire, nearly went a couple times but never made it? Probably flooded so didn't try again until this evening and same again, any ideas?
Cheers
Lee

Start by cleaning your plugs. See if that makes any difference.
