Hello everyone, i have a 95 J30 with 178,000 miles and about two weeks ago i got in it and it didn't start... So i was told too pull the fuel pump fuse, the injectors fuse and floor the throttle and start it and it worked the car started right up. I ran back and put the fuses back on... But now i have to do that every time it won't start. I used a friend's snap-on scan tool too check for code and it didn't have any. The car dosen't misfire or stall.. Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Sounds like your engine is flooding. J's don't like short trips. The engines is made for early 90's performance. You need to warm up the car properly to optimum engine temp before shutting off.
