i agree with ted, you could sell right now for $1500-2000, or running condition for $4000-5000. so it would be worth it to fix if repairs cost less than $2000, less whatever your headache is worth


edit: "flooded" means combustion chamber flooded with fuel, which what can happen if coils not working properly
