Default RE: prop problems

Sounds like a fuel locked engine. Take out the glow plug and spin the prop with your starter to get the fuel out of the engine head. Replace the glow plug and try to start again except do not prime the engine, just let the compression of the starter prime it as it spins the prop. If it still floods then you have a fuel tank/fuel system problem somewhere.
