Flooded Engine; Stopping The Engine - Honda HRA216 Owner's Manual

Flooded Engine
If the engine won't start after several pulls on the starter rope, the engine
may be flooded.
To clear a flooded engine:
1. Move the throttle lever to STOP and turn off the fuel valve.
2. Remove the spark plug and dry it. When reinstalling the plugs, thread it
in by hand until it seats. Then tighten it an additional l/8- l/4 turn with
the spark plug wrench to compress the washer.
3. Move the throttle to HI, turn on the fuel valve and repeat steps 3-5
under "Starting the Engine".
Stopping the Engine
