non starting auto trans convertible

Okay. I drove my car for a bit, parked it and now it won't start. It's a 1991. Tried the pull the egi fuse trick and the put the accelerator on the floor also (as in the owners manual). I keep hearing about the atf technique. Could someone explain what to do step by step. Car ran fine until this. Much abliged.

don't use ATF use MMO or 2 stroke. I would think is just your battery running low on power or being really really flooded. Try the complex unflooding procedure from www.rx7.com

Well...Just did it. Put in new plugs (needed them anyhow) and wires. Added a little MMO..and after a little coaxing....a beautiful cloud of smoke. Runs perfect now. Appreciate the help. Nothing worse than having a convertible on a hot day and everyone asking, How come you aren't driving that?
