Default 1994 Marquis GS- Flooded? Wont Start Please HElp

hi,

i just bought a 94 marquis park lane from my buddy, and i got it fixed with a complete tune up, new thermostat, and radiator hose, the car had been sitting for about 8 months outside before i took it to the shop. I paid $500 to get the car fixed and they said it would be fine, but now its in my driveway and it wont turn over.. I think its flooded but do any of you guys have a tip just to get it going? is it also true that the more i drive it the cleaner the fuel lines will get? thank you

if the engine is turning, but won't fire, check the fuel filter, fuel lines and fuel pressure at the rails. I doubt it's a flooding issue because that car has electronic fuel injection.

if you have no pressure and the fuel filter isn't plugged, then you've probably got a blown fuse on the fuel pump or a bum fuel pump.
