If
your engine 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 engine 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.

you
add electrical parts or accessories, you could
change the
way

adding electrical equipment, check with your dealer.

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.
