starts but then stops), it could be
flooded with too much gasoline. Try
pushing your accelerator pedal all thl

gasoline from the engine. Turn the
ignition key to Off. Wait 10 seconds:

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 fuel injection system
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.
