3vze startup hesitation
Last week I attempted to start my 3.0 4runner and when I turned the key it started up for a brief second and died. I tried to start it again and it would just crank and crank without actually starting. I replaced the coil wire (which was pretty bad), distributor cap & rotor, and plugs. When I took the intake off, gas pour out and it apparently was a badly flooded engine. I tried to start it this morning and it did the same thing but I was lucky enough to roll start it. Basically, if I don't give it a little gas when I start it, it won't seem to start at all and apparently floods. Other problems which may/may not relate: It's throwing a code pertaining to the O2 sensor or EGR (California emissions). and I have a very bad coolant leak at the water pump (which I'm fixing this week). Thanks for any suggestions!
