84 900T - Problem Starting: Need Advise

84 900T: The car has been sitting for approx 2 months while I had been completing some restoration work..paint, intercooler etc. Yesterday was the day to start the car and get it rolling. I kept the gas tank full over the entire period. It turns over fine and there is spark at the plugs however, it seems to be flooding. Pulling the plugs (NGK BP7ES) I discovered that they are wet. It wants to start then boges down....flooding. Pulling and drying the plugs, I started the process again. Admitedly I pushed the accelerator pedal when trying to get to start. What is the best way to clear the cylinders of fuel and bring life to the engine. Car was running fine prior to the work. Do I use some starting fluid. I now know not to touch the gas pedal. Any advise would be most welcome. I need the turbo back in action. Thanks. By the way what is proper gap for the plug...0.26 or 0.28.
