During starting, the fuel injectors are
turned off as long as the accelerator
pedal is depressed. This can be used
to drain excessive fuel from the
intake manifold after several
unsuccessful starting attempts.
If the battery has been disconnected
or after the fuel type has been
changed, the idle speed may be
irregular. This will improve after 10 to
30 seconds.
