Chevy Truck Flooding Out/Won't Start
I am working on a 1981 C10 pickup 350. I have spark, checked firing order, checked the float, needles, and seats in the carb. But it keeps flooding out and backfiring.

kevinkpk.....thank you for the suggestion. I checked the float, checked the needles, and seats in the carb and those are fine. The carb itself was replaced 1.5 years ago but I did pull it out and everything checked out good. I will check the compression tomorrow since that is the only thing I haven't tested out of all the obvious fixes for this issue.

I had an issue kinda like this a few months back on my 79 350.
some of my spark plugs went bad got fowled. It cuased the rest of the plugs to flood so I replaced them all and it started up. But then my fuel pump went bad and my ignition fuse needed a slightly higher amp fuse. Always started on the first turn.
