Hey guys,
I'm currently troubleshooting my car, 1995 BMW 318is. I keep hearing online to check if my engine is flooded, it makes sense since I've been cranking my car for long periods of time without it starting while troubleshooting so the injectors have been firing for awhile (I have lifted up the fuel injectors and confirmed they fire upon cranking). People will always say that a flooded engine causes low compression, low enough for the engine not to start, but my cars compression in its cylinders ranges from 120 - 190 PSI. Does this mean I can rule out a flooded engine?
