Pull EGI, and Fuel Pump Fuses. Turn the motor over for about 5 seconds. Put your dry plugs back in. Put you fuses back in. Make sure your battery is fully charged now. Then try and start again.

You could do what Luke has suggested... But RX8 has their own little tricks to deflood.


Put your foot on the gas pedal, all the way down, and crank for 30 seconds.

Stop. Turn the car off, wait, and crank the car without foot on the gas pedal.

Well, that was what I was told and it worked for other people... And I think I also saw that on the Mazda DVD that I received few months ago.
