engine flooding, need help
i have a 86 RX7 and i think the engine is flooding. i tried removing the 'EGI COMP', crank the engine 15sec, then plug the fuse back in and start. doesnt work. then tried the complex procedure, remove fuse, spark plug, crank, install spark plug, install fuse crank, started for like 2 sec and died. but for those 2 sec, there is HEAVY, i mean, REALLY HEAVY, smoke!!! i think it is still flooded. i did the complex way 2 times, i did put in a bit of trans oil in the bottom plug holes b4 reinstall the plugs. i had jumper cables hooked up to another running car so it should not be the battery. how many times is needed for the complex method??? any info is appreciated! thanks! oh, i the whole exhaust is not there. i dunno if that affects it. there is gas.

you could fix your leaky injectors or just replace them with new one or i found my own solution and it works perfect.
in your trunk bay there is the power lines for the fuel pump.` located under neath the rug. find the black ground wire and cut it. extend the wires up towards your seat. connect an on/off switch(one that will stay off and stay on not spring back and forth). when your car is flooded turn the switch off. continue to start the car with the switch off. your car will eventuall start. when it does turn the pump back on WHALLA. fixes your start problem and helps your car from getting stolen.
now just hide the wires and install the switch somewhere and make it look clean.
