76 Chevy Cheyenne short bed engine flood problem

Asked by SunnyMomma Apr 02, 2019 at 04:00 AM about the 1976 Chevrolet C/K 10 Cheyenne 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

We just bought a 76 Chevy Cheyenne short bed and it was cold started but we
were letting her run for a little to warm up. It died a couple times and we started
it backup. On the third time it refused to start, it would just crank. Its got a full
tank and after checking everything we figured out it flooded. So we let it sit for
a little and than she started up but than died again and now it acts like it floods
after ever start.  The previos owner just fixed the timing but I'll be completely
honest I don't know much about trucks but I do know to check the fluids and
the spark plugs and the general stuff so any suggestions as to what could be
causing it?
