I have a 1995 gs 300. The injectors sometimes will add to much fuel n cause the car to shut off n flood. I have to do a flood clear to get it started again. I have had two mechanics run diagnostics but it only gives codes for bad o2 sensors which is because of the extra fuel from jectors. What's causing the injectors too do this n it happen intermittently. 100700 miles.

The injectors open and close to feed fuel to cylinders based on data they receive from various censors. If the wrong info is fed to the ecm, this results in the injectors opening too long or too short what ever the case may be. Check out all of the sensors involved in feeding the ecm - Example: if there is a cold start sensor that is not working properly too much fuel will get in there and ......................

SOURCE: 95 Lexus ES 300 difficulty accelerating after car has been parked

I had the same problem. I thought it might have been fuel lines clogged or fuel injectors. It ended up being a vacuum leak. My vacuum lines came unhooked and the main had a big crack in it. Repaired the crack and hooked the lines up and the problem went away.

SOURCE: 1995 ES 300 - antifreeze is draining from reserve.

Is the reserve tank cracked or have a deteriorated hose going to the radiator? Remove the tank to find out. A bad seal on the radiator cap can also lose fluid. A coolant leak anywhere can deplete the coolant level in the radiator and reserve tank. Check your owners manual for antifreeze type and mix ratio with water.

I know from experience that you should only use manufacturer recommended fluids in your transmission, Especially toyota, they are very peculiar about the fluids you use in them. Although the fluid you put in it may not cause any harm, it is always best to use the fluids recommended.

Where is the fuel shut off switch for a 2001 lexus gs 300

Your vehicle does not come equipped with an inertia fuel shut off switch. You will need to look elsewhere for this system failure. Possible causes could be: Anti theft (SRS) system, blow fuse, Relay, module, bad pump, wiring or connection or out of fuel. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

Leaking fuel injector?

After hot engine wont start and smells like gas

Most likely causes are bad engine coolant temp sensor OR leaking fuel injectors. Bad engine coolant temp sensor will give computer false reading and computer provides wrong air fuel mixture. Leaking fuel injectors will load the engine with raw gas--just like flooding it. Try pushing the gas pedal to the floor and holding it there when cranking when hot. That forces the computer into "clear flood" mode and it shuts off the injectors. If it starts up with pedal down, that would be a sign of leaking injectors.

98 RAM 1500 WONT START

Replace the coolant sensor NOW!? Its causing a flooding condition as evidenced by wet plugs that short out when flooded. Blip the starter and see if raw fuel is blown out as another indication of a flooded condition. In cases of flooded engines, holding the gas pedal to the floor shuts off the injectors during starting to clear out the cylinders.

The brass replacement sensor will cure flooding and many other engine/transmission issues.

Car will turn over but will not start the car sat for a month it did start at first then it stoped i toke all the distpitor wires off one at a time and replaced them and it would start but now it wont...

The engine is probably flooded (Way too much fuel) If the fans are running all the time, it is usually caused by a bad Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor. This will also cause the injectors to open all the way and flood the engine. Replace the Coolant Temp Sensor, then hold the throttle all the way to the floor while you crank the engine. This puts the computer in "Clear Flood Mode" and will shut the fuel off so the excess gas can get out of the cylinders. This should make it start.

Most cars have a emergency fuel shut off in the trunk that shuts down fuel pump when hit in the rear end. Try to push that . Or poor some fuel into injectors then see if it will turn over.

1995 dodge caravan S.E. 3.3L doesn't want to start, then does and dies out (also pushing gas petal almost to the floor?????)

pushing gas pedal to near floor causes what is called clear flood fuction. if cranking engine with near full throttle the fuel injectors will not activate, assumes flooded engine and will not start.
most likely you have a very dirty throttle body. clean well with tooth brush and carb cleanr esecially were the throttle plate rests at idle, the plate and the wall of body. just a little carbon build up will cause a no start

95 Bonneville won't start when hot

Yes I know, but If you hold the accelerator pedal to the floor on a fuel injected car, the Throttle position sensor will tell the computer to enter clear flood mode. Then the computer will shut off the fuel injectors while you have the pedal to the floor. If it is flooded, you should be able to get it started in clear flood.
