My 1997 eagle talon tsi fwd turbo with a 1st gen motor in it. I let my car sit for about 9 months and i charged the battery and it started up just fine and i started it up for about three months after that then I had let the hood open and we got a blizzard and alot of snow got on the engine for about 24 hours before it was all cleared off. Then after it all was cleared off it sat for about two in a half months outside with below freezing temps and it wouldnt start so I had brought it in my 85% garage to let everything unfreeze and after that we checked for spark and fuel and I had both and everytime I check the plugs their wet with gas so I dont know what to do now?

The plugs are gas fouled. You can use a propane torch and heat/ burn the electrode end and burn the gas off, get them red hot. While the plugs are out, move the plug wires away from the plug holes and turn the engine over several times to get rid of some of the fuel. by the time the plugs cool off the cylinders should be some what dry. If you don't have a torch get new plugs.
