I've been told that flooding is most likely caused by debris at the needle and seat. I've had suggested that a fuel filter at the fuel inlet may prevent debris in the line from messing with the needle. Teflon tape on the threads has been another culprit with the needle.
I don't know about you, but these suggestions just don't stop it. I'm wondering if there is too much fuel pressure and how would you correct that? Otherwise I'd like to hop in on your questions as well.
