Default Is my bike FLOODED??

Ok so I just finished replacing my old fuel petcock with a new Pingle fuel petcock. Every thing went smooth expect I had to replace one hose with a bigger after market hose I bought at Napa Autoparts. My problem is when I went to start my bike I pulled the choke to start her up and it turned over but then suddenly stopped. Now it refuses to turn over at all, the lights are on and its in neutral. Reasons I think its flooded is its leaking fuel from almost every where there is a fuel hose :/ any how I'm scared I might have fu*ked up my bike royally and can't afford professional help. here are some pics that I hope help "A" and "B" is here I connected the fuel lines from the old to the new. Also I can shoot video of the bike trying to start if need be.

yep.. sounds to me like you have flooded her good....

only way to get that out with out completely bending everything is to remove the sparkplugs and try n suck it out...

You could remove the plugs and kill the ignition circuit and turn it over.. but!! this will spray Fuel everywhere.

i would remove the oil fill plug and check if there is fuel in the oil too..
Basically your whole air system will be full of fuel. (possibly oi system too!) you have to get rid of it all before you even attempt to start her.

He just told you..

Remove tank. Remove airbox, Remove coils and wires, Remove Spark plugs (see their fuel soaked) Go to Advanced Auto and Get a new Set of plugs, Gap them..
Using a air compressor shoot air into each spark plug hole with a rag over top to get out gas...OR UNPLUG coils (so they don't spark) Try to turn over bike, Gas will Shoot out all over.
Check oil for gas...Remove oil plug, Depending on year bike look at oil stick for gas and smell it. If no dip stick on plug stick a long Qtip in oil and see what it looks like. IF it has gas in oil then CHANGE oil. Put back to together and see what happens...Hopefully you didn't hydro lock it. If you did get another motor.
Check airfilter also, if gas present replace it.

If you try the remove sparkplug and turn it over method....

Make damn sure your ignition circuit is disconnected or you will end up with a massive fireball and your bike on fire!!!!

To be honest i would recommend you put it on the centre stand remove the sparkplugs and with it still switched off put it in 1st gear and turn the motor over by hand using the back wheel..
It will work the fuel out slowly and not catch anything on fire.

@Not my bike If you look above the particular thread you'll see when a particular post was made. The older a posting is, the less likely that the person is to respond. Just a helpful FYI.
