you should change the oil after flooding the vehicle. the gasoline will seep through past the pistons and get into the oil thinning it out, this is very bad for your engine. change the oil and maybe even put some additive in it for noisy lifters( that's what is making the ticking sound). as for the brakes they are completely unrelated to the flooding problem. if you have rear drums then they are more than likely adjusted up to far and stuck, they have self adjusters inside which sometimes go to far. there should be a slot in the backside where you can get a screwdriver in to turn the adjuster back.

Sounds like you have a problem with your brakes. Check to make sure that the hand brake disengages properly. If not, you're gonna have to call a mechanic to have that ckecked out. As for the clicking sound it must be electrical. If you flooded the vehicle it could be that something got wet. Thus, let it run a little bit and then it'll go away.

it particularly is not easy to assert for specific, i don't understand what you tension, and don't understand the heritage of your vehicle. are you able to undergo in concepts the final time you had the brakes finished? My wager, your rear brake footwear are thoroughly wiped out. steel to steel. Be arranged for an costly restoration and extraordinarily much each little thing desires to get replaced. footwear, drums, and hardware.

If water has gotten into you parking brake system (where the cable goes into the brake drum) and the weather is freezing temperature, it could lock the parking brake on.
