Best Answer

dump out the gas from the tank then keep the mower on choke and pull the string ten times

A Different Method

Remove the spark plug and pull on the string several times to "blow" the excess fuel out through the spark plug hole. Inspect and dry/clean/replace the spark plug as needed. If flooding continues, then either the carburetor needs adjusting, or the fuel float is stuck open.
