its flooding the motor with fuel because it is not getting spark. check your ignition coil.

No spark? More than likely your coil went bad. Either they work or they don't with no warning.

had the same problem about 2 months ago, try to get a dizzy off of some one. most likely it's the dizzy, the smell of gas due to a malfunction in spark or burning gas I'd change the spark plugs 2 . GL
