Default Flooded the engine.

Well, I flooded the engine and my Losi 8ight-t defintently won't start. What should I do? Will the fuel eventually just come out or is there something I need to do?

or you can turn the flywheel over by hand and the fuel will drip out as well. That is what I do with my (bump starting) engine.

That is the best way if you ask me.
