Flooding sticky?
 

All these millions of threads, with this big thing called flooding everybodys hould avoid, with tips and tricks aorund .... and nobody made this into a clear document for a sticky? Wish it was .. cause that topic makes me nervous and I'd rather not want to use somebodys 'hearsay' tips, but soemthing, that's proven to work (maybe even mazdas response?).. hmmm...

mazda's response is in all of those, and we'd have less threads if everyone would stop making new ones.

unflooding procedure involves cuttin' the fuel pump and pulling the plugs (to clean them and make extra holes out of the engine), turning the engine over for a bit, putting it all back in working order, and cranking until it starts again.
