Fuel Injected Models
To clear a flooded engine:
1. Advance the remote control lever to the FULL
THROTTLE
B position.
NOTICE! Be prepared to quickly move the control
handle to IDLE once the engine starts. This will
avoid over-speeding and possibly damaging the
engine.
2. Turn the ignition switch to START II . If the engine
does not start, then try again.
In this throttle position, with the engine speed
below 400 RPM (cranking speed), the ECM shuts
off the fuel injectors so no fuel is delivered.
3. Move the throttle back to the neutral position to
return to normal operating mode.
NOTICE! Immediately after engine start-up, look at all
instruments. If any readings are abnormal, stop the
engine and determine the cause.
