Starting a Flooded Engine
If the engine fails to start, it may be
flooded (excessive fuel in the engine).
Follow this procedure:
1. If the engine does not start within five
seconds on the first try, switch the
ignition off, wait ten seconds and try
again.
2. Depress the accelerator all the way and
hold it there.
3. Switch the ignition to START and hold
it there―for up to ten seconds . If the
engine starts, release the key and
accelerator immediately because the
engine will suddenly rev up.
4. If the engine fails to start, crank it
without depressing the accelerator―for
up to ten seconds.
If the engine still does not start using the
above procedure, have your vehicle
inspected by an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
