To unflood remove the plugs and fuel pump relay. Crank the car over to get as much fuel as possible out of the rotors this will make a mess of your engine bay, refit the relay. Put the battery on charge and walk away until the morning. In the mean time dry the plugs a blow torch gas ring etc will assist, or better yet get a new set. In the morning put a little ATF (power steering) oil in each rotor housing turn the car over by hand a third of a turn add a little more turn once more a third of a turn and repeat with the oil. Refit the plugs and if possible use a set of jump leads in addition to the fully charged battery for starting power. When it starts you will get clouds of smoke and crap out of the tail pipes dont worry about this just keep it running until it all gets up to temp and clears up.

I think you should be very careful with your words here mate. We didn\'t say the car was fine at all, the complete opposite, we refused to work on it as the car was in such a mess and you didn\'t want to spend that sort of money getting it all up to scratch, needed a lot of work to put right. We hardly touched the car, just filled it up with coolant as it was driven here completely empty and overheating badly, as everyone knows, rotary\'s do not like getting hot.....

Removing the fuel pump relay will NOT stop the fuel pumping on an FD.
