Default Re: Out driving. Shut off car. Dead. What is this?

If you pumped the gas pedal or revved the engine too high you may have flooded the carb. Or, check the wire that links the ignition to the starter. I had a similar problem with my friends '85 Benz 380 SL. The electrical worked and all but the car should not start. He drove the car to work one morning, and was stuck there in the afternoon. Turns out the wire that links the ignition to the starter frayed and was no longer functioning. Maybe this helps?
