Simple FD question
 
im going to replace my spark plugs and unflood the engine. i was told to do this process:
- unplug igniter,
- remove trailing plugs,
- hold throttle to floor and crank for 10 secs,
- two drops of motor oil in two top plug holes and crank for another 10,
- plug igniter back in,
- put 4 new plugs in.

my question is, where can i find the igniter to unplug? and should i leave the EGI fuse plugged in?

Don't unplug the ignitors...

Just pull the EGI fuse.

i've heard its ok to use ATF instead of oil when putting them drops in the plug holes. should i just use ATF cause i have a brand new bottle of it.

That is way to compicated. the EGI fuse is so much faster. just yank it, krank it, and put it back. have it turned for about 10 sec before putting it back. (In the manual it said to just let it sit for a sec and crank it for 10 sec. that dont seem to work well when you have put on some miles)

ATF works well also.

The igniter isn't bad if you don't have cruise control. But the EGI is definitely easy. Choose one.

When you go to start it, and it begins to catch you may need to use partial throttle to keep it going. It will take some time to get it settled out.
