Cold start FLOODING problem. 700 1989


I have a 740T wagon w/ B230. I've only had the car for 3 days and after it sat for 2 full days, it wouldn't start. It's definitely flooding; all 4 plugs were wet upon inspection. Dried them out, tried again--same thing. No start, smell of fuel. It started fine when it was warm.

I've been scanning through the posts and 700/900 FAQ on fuel systems and I am suspecting it may be the Fuel Regulator not properly controlling volume to engine. Not being very familiar with Volvos, I'm really not sure.

Can anyone offer insight into this problem? All help is appreciated.
