Help with the Corona Starting

Hi..

My Toyota Corona 1988 has stopped working

I was cleaning my car and didn't realize that radio was on, after the cleaning I tried to start the car and it wouldn't go, I got my brother to help me with a jump start but that didn't work, My car is a (Single Point Injector) I noticed that there was alot of petrol in the throttle body ALOT.. After doing some research on the internet i was believed that it was the Stater Motor and that the engine had flooded, I cleaned all spark plugs and Hoped that it would work again, but that didn't solve anything, After draining the oil there was alot of petrol in there, I topped it up but nothing happens.. Don't have much money to spend on it but need it to go... I just don't know what it is doing

When I tried to start the car, I put the headlights on and when I turned the ignition key the headlights would flicker and I can hear the engine barely turning over\

Please can someone help me?

Marc

Hi.. With the Starter Motor, Is there a correct way to install it? When i removed the factory starter motor, there are 2 screws one on the left and one on the right, I removed the unit and connected it to the power, turned the key on and the motor works properly

All Good, Have gotten it sorted, Bad Pressure Regulator was stuck open, replaced that with some new engine oil, new spark plugs cleaned distributer cap, and its running better than it did before
