Had similar before where the rotor arm was burnt out, and it didn't want to know apart from the odd cough here and there.
Yes checked for spark each lead had one. (grrr if it's the rotor arm, I got it not to long ago. LOL)

No car was running fine couple of days ago. If anything the idle was hunting when cold, I read here that it most likely would be the water temp sensor. Once the car didn't start the first thing to
be changed was the sensor, but nothing happend.

Even before He changed the sensor it felt a little loose, but nothing major?

It may also be that the ignition system isnt 100% and giving a weak spark, thus adding to the flooding issue, check/replace cap/arm etc etc.
if it aint that...fuck knows! lol
Are you talking about the plugs?? the cap,rotor, sensors have been replaced June of 04 but the car has really only been driven in the last couple of months. Oh, BTW I have some cool video of your car, and Pictures! I was with the former owner when he bought it

Would I just unplug it and re plug it back in?? wiggle it?? burn the car??
