CLEAR FLOOD
If a flood condition occurs, turn the key on then press the accelerator to wide-open throttle. This tells
the ECU to turn off the injectors. Crank the engine to clear the flood condition until the engine starts
(release the throttle).
Note: The TPS is self calibrating so the key must be in the ON position prior to pressing the accelerator.
