there is a deflooding procedure in your Owner's Manual. If you don't have a copy, you can go to www.mazdausa.com, register to the site, and download the pdf version.
OR
There's a deflooding DIY in the tech forum

Step 1. Find a long straw.
Step 2. Insert one end into engine.
Step 3. Start sucking
rofl I'm sure the standard deflooding procedure will get it back up and running.

grats! Glad to hear the car is up and running.
Have you had this issue before?
Ever had the plugs and starter upgraded by the dealership?

Unfortunately, he's out of warranty, so no free service, except recalls. From our conversations, it sounds like the same old story. Been really good to the car, then started it, moved it, and shut her down in cold weather, without reving 'er up first.

TSB's can still be performed out of warranty. Just be realllly nice to the dealership.
