Its embarrassing? I feel like a super cool mechanic everytime I have to pop my hood and pull the fuse to start the car. You probably should have posted this in the FC tech section.

Marck,
You can try bringing the engine to 3k rpm, letting off the gas, then turn off the ignition while it's winding down and see if that reduces the flooding occurrences. However if the engine floods that often, it's your car trying to tell you something needs to get fixed.

Yeah Do what Howru it doubles up as a kill switch =D
if you was an s5 i would have said....
hold gas peddle down for 4 to 5 sec crank then let go afterward then crank again always worked for me when before I had my rebuild.
