I left old faithful sitting for a week while canoeing the Boundry
Waters in Minnesota.  Now, it just turns over but will not start.  I am
thinking it might be flodded (possible leaking injectors, it does have
260,000 miles on it), but am not sure how to recover from it.

Any help is appreciated,  Thanks.

I would tap your fuel pump relay to see if it helps...Check the date on the
fuel pump relay... if it is old... real old... then it is probably shot...

JUst replaced it a month ago (It was intermittently failing).

Anyone know what resitances I should see when testing the Flywheel and
crank sensors?
