What happened to all the flooding threads?

I mean, seriously, it was like a weekly ritual to hear the latest vistim. Massive coverup or did the M finally fix the majority of the problems?

There is no flooding issue.

This is not the 8 you are looking for.

Whether it was cured by flashes, mileage or warmer temps I for one don't miss them. While I am sure this was a very real problem for some owners I have never flooded even after repeated short interval starts. (knock on wood)

1. Warmer Temps
2. People actually read the owners manual
3. perhaps the new flashes
4. There was no issue, it was all a group hallucination

It was never an issue. There was maybe 15 people total on the board that flooded, and it usually was their own fault.

The 3 billion people coming to ask about it are what made it seem bad.
