Starting Your
3100
Engine
1. Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn
your
ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go of the key. The idle speed will go down as your
engine gets warrn.
I
NOTICE:
Holding your key in START for longer than
15
seconds at a time will cause your battery to be
drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can
damage your starter motor.
2. If your engine won't start (or starts but then stops),
it could be flooded with too much gasoline. Try
pushing your accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and holding it there as you hold the key in
START for up to 15 seconds. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine.
NOTICE:
Your engine is designed to work with the
electronics in your vehicle. If you add electrical
parts or accessories, you could change the way
the engine operates. Before adding electrical
equipment, check with your dealer.
If you don't,
your engine might not perform properly.
If you ever have to have your vehicle towed, see
the part of this manual that tells how to do it
without damaging your vehicle. See "Towing
Your Vehicle" in the Index.
