Issue with flooding - 350 Chev TBI (1 Viewer)

[Sheep Shagger]

Hello all, I have an FJ62 with a 350 Chev TBI in it.
Problem is, when I go away for work, I go away for 10 days and return.
Byt, upon returning, the 350 wont start, it floods instantly and thats it... now it wont start.

Ive replaced everything in the ignition system, based on what Ive read on this forum.

Im out of options....any ideas?

have you checked for codes .... TBI should fire right off no matter whats going on. I would check for fuel pressure and or something related to fuel pressure regulator.

Hey Elbert, I had a Mechanic come in and he tested the Fuel Pressure and and it was fine.

So I had the truck flatbedded to the mechanics.
Turns out the timing chain is knackered and the gear on the distributor is also worn.
