If engine floods Gi, GSi models: A flooded engine can be cleared by advancing the control handle to a position of 3/4 throttle. In this throttle position and the engine speed below 400 RPM (cranking speed) the ECM turns off the fuel injectors so no fuel is delivered. When the throttle position is moved to full throttle or less than 3/4 throttle, the ECM returns to the starting mode. IMPORTANT! Be prepared to quickly move the control handle to the idle position once the engine starts. This will avoid overspeeding and possible damage to the engine.
