Starting
Your
2.2
Liter
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 warm.
r
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 still 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 about three seconds.
If
the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again, do the same thing, but
this time keep
the
pedal down for
five
or
six
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.
