84 trans am

im not new to this board but my old name (piester) was messed up so i had to restart.
i may be buying a 1984 trans am. has a 305 4bbl on it. carb is a computer controlled quadrajet. has a few problems though. didnt want to start then when it did it ran extremly rough , had to floor it just to keep it running. and then it died and flooded on the next attempt to start it. any ideas?
