Engine Flooding
Hi There, I am brand new to the forum and I was hoping someone would be able to help me.
I own a 2004 coupe auto. Its bone stock except for a z-tube installed 5 years ago. Recently, I've had issues with the engine flooding on a cold start up. I would try to crank it over, and I would have to rev the crap out of the engine, spewing lots of grey smoke to clear the cylinders of excess fuel when starting. It does not happen every time, but its been about 4 times in the last 2 months.
I don't really have the extra cash to go get it diagnosed at a shop, and I am a very DYI kind of guy ( I do gun smithing on the side). So I am hoping that someone might have some advice on what to look for, or what may be the cause of the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
