If they are wet, they are getting gas.
If you have spark, theres a good chance you flooded it.
I would try to hold the gas pedal all the way down to the floor and continue to crank it and see if it starts. If that doesn't work, sometimes you'll have to put a little oil in each cylinder to help give a lil more compression in there and it should start then. Just remove a plug 1 at a time and use a funnel and a hose attached to it if you have to put oil in the cylenders. Trust me, it works. I do it all the time. Oh it will smoke if it does start, but it'll clear up.
**But the above tips are only if you have spark at the coil, at each cylinder, and you have 58-60 psi of fuel and your for sure getting fuel thru the injectors (which by the wet plugs i would assume u are). If nothing I told you helps, get in touch with me, or if you just want me to look at it, just get ahold of me either way.
Remember you need air, fuel, and spark to make an engine run. You can also trying to unhook the MAF and see if it starts. Just a wild guess, but I have seen stupid issues just pop up. I'm just trying to cover all bases. Also, be sure to cover everything you removed, or moved, and check every fuse and etc. it's possible you blew a fuse under the hood in the fuse box or 1 in the passenger compartment. (inside the cab)
Good Luck! I'm only a phone call away!

I'll call u Monday. I've pretty much done everything u said except dump oil down each cylinder. Its probably something simple but like I said I'm pretty sure it's getting gas, spark and I triple checked all the fuses under the hood and the cab. Anyway atleast I have the ss to get me around. Happy new year everyone!

So did any of you get your toys out friday to give them a break from the garage. I have the cobra apart in the garage, but I took the fox around the block a couple times. It was a nice day I was wearing a T-shirt most of the time. Installed my 20 ton hydraulic press, makes suspension mods so much nicer.

I got mine both fired up yesterday. And last Tuesday I took the TA to the gas station to put a lil gas in it.
I neglected doing that.
I'm currently ready to tear the TA apart, but don't have the money to do what I want so I'm kinda torn. IDK what I'll end up doing to it just yet! But it's getting a few mods for sure.

however, it will get some miles on it in the coming weeks. my wife smoked a deer with the red car and it will be in the body shop for awhile. so if you see the black car in sig, avoid at all costs. she has been hitting **** left and right the past few months.

Ive had mine out the whole time! haha Just thought Id check in over here.
TBSS is down for about a week, putting in some electric fans to free up a little power. Had to send the PCM in to get a patch for them from PCMforless. Got a CAI in from jetttstream to so hopefully itll be a seat of the pants difference when its all said and done. My air filter looked like it hadnt been changed since it left the factory just a nasty dark brown...
Anybody else do some christmas modding?
