I have had issues with my A4 not starting in the past which have been resolved with removing spark plugs, and drying out the cylinders. I have blamed water incursion in the past, but I did not put my tongue on the spark plug to see if there was a salt water taste. I wonder if excessive fuel could "flood" the engine before it starts?
A previous owner installed some creative fuel pump wiring so that the fuel pump will turn on before ignition. He told me that I had to do this to "prime" the engine, but I wonder if running the fuel pump before ignition could foul the plugs with excess fuel and prevent starting?
Thanks!
