Ok the other day i decided to take my 7 for a ride and it wouldnt start. The bat feels fine, and it aint the starter. When i turn the key the car cranks just as it has always done. It feels like theres either no gas getting in or possibly...too much? I think it may be flooded cuz the last time i remember turning the car on i did turn it off shortly after. Also if u guys think it is flooded then how do i unflood it? I have tried to search for the procedures online to do so but it only gives dirrections on how to unflood 1st and 2nd gen 7's. Can any of u fellow rotor owners help me?

 

WOT + turn the key for 15 seconds
no throttle + turn the key for 15 seconds
repeat until she kicks over (and resist the temptation to pump the pedal when it starts to chugg into life).

you will get advice to pull fuses and plugs and **** - but try the basic method first - a hell of a lot easier (and it's always worked for me)

 

...and it can take a while for it to work - so don't give up too quickly

 

if that doesn't work ^ next take out the plugs and crank till the fuel is spit out, btw cover the spray path so it doesn't make a huge mess.

replace the plugs and then crank it should start, u'll notice a bad erratic idle, its pretty scary the first time u experience it, and a TON of smoke will be pouring out the exhaust. i set off the fire alarm the last time i performed a de-flood.

plus u can pull the pink 30A EGI fuse if u want to lol. once its done smoking u can then replace the fuse, crank, and it should start up fine, smoke for a while longer, and u're set.

btw all the cranking may drain your battery, have a jumper cable handy or a charger.

 

Well im no expert so i'll try the 1st method LOL... hope it works. Thanx guys!
