Hi = Dave,

 

Since you seemed to have checked everything else – how about the fuel quality – seems that is = the only thing you changed since your last flight., Not  certain what = you meant by re-drained it– is it sure nuff 100LL or Autogas?  Nothing = perhaps diluting it?

 

 

But, other than too much fuel = (flooding) sounds like you have all the essentials for a running = engine.
