JP problem after deflooding..need help please

hi,thnx alfy and others posting in this thread =)

i got my first flood after 6months using my 8,and i followed the deflooding instructions and after sometimes i got it started..i was a bit scared since my fuel tank was nearly empty and here in japan its hard to get fuel after the earthquake.i gambled and went on queuing at the nearest gas station as soon as i got the car started(waited for half and hour until the white smoke was gone) and luckily after 2 hours of queuing i finally made it and drove it for about 20-30minutes.
my problem right now after the deflooding is my car wont start if i dont press the acc to the floor and slowly depress it while turning the ignition on. and if i just simply turn the ignition it sounded like the sound when your car has already started but you still turn the keys,but in my case i just turn the keys a little my 8 made that kind of sound..did i do something wrong during the deflooding ,can anyone help me please.
