1) The motor has a total of three (3) moving parts, there are not lots of problems. Its pretty much just the apex seals, yet plenty of people are happily over 150k miles.
2) You wont find any new posts about flooding, the issue was more or less cured. 'prone to flooding'* *When you do something explicitly and directly related to the problem. (Afraid of it flooding anyway? Well you will love the solution. Just rev the pants off it right before you shut it down and the problem will never arise in the first place)
