The prob was the accelerator pump rod fell off onto the intake, when ti started it died i cranked it over and over , thinking it flooded , push the throttle all the way forward to clear it out(which it wasnt flooded) to have it spit back and break the starter and chip some teeth. No water in the cylinder , just a mess up by me .

I pulled the plug and headers no water, I know what happened when I shimmed the starter I stripped it thinking it would be ok, well not I should had waited till the next morning and got the correct one, if so I wouldn't be working on it today. I will post a pic of the starter and it will tell the story.
