If
your enpe still won’t start (or
starts
but then stops),
it could be flooded with too much gasoline. Try
pushing your accelerator pedal
all
the way to the floor
and holding it there as you hold the key in START for
about three seconds. If the vehicle
starts
briefly but
then stops again, do the same
thing,
but
this
time keep
the pedal down for five
or
six
seconds.
This
clears the
extra gasoline
from
the
engine. After waiting about
15
seconds, repeat the normal starting procedure.
NOTICE:
Your engine is designed to work with the
electronics in your vehicle.
If
you add electrical
parts or accessories, you could change the way
the engine operates. Before adding electrical
1
equipment, check with your dealer.
If
you don’t,
your engine might not perform properly.
If
you ever have to have your vehicle towed, see
the part
of
this manual that tells how to do it
without damaging your vehicle. See “Towing
~
Your Vehicle” in the Index.
