I've never had mine flood after doing all the wrong things for 3 years .
I would say to any new owner . Get familiar with the deflood proceedure in the manual , and just forget about all this crap about not shutting off cold and reving it before shutting off .
If you ever do flood you will know what to do .

cold shutdown I rev to 3000, just to be safe.

I do the same with cold shutdown - rev up to 2 - 3 K

Cold shutdown I rev/hold at 3k for 10 seconds. Not had a problem with flooding or starting.

I take the spark plugs out every morning and do the purge procedure, then reinstall spark plugs, just to be sure. Takes about 1 hour every morning but better to be safe than sorry is what I think. Now my wrist muscles are really strong.

I just turn it off

Yes. I rev to 10 rpm and hold it for 3K seconds. But only if I'm cold.

I wonder how many out there haven't had their hard start upgrade done...?

This is all you can come up with?

Rev between upshifts, rev between downshifts, and rev in neutral just for good measure. If traveling longer than 2-3 miles without a rev, go ahead and catch up on revs within the next half-mile. The alternative fix, when falling behind the necessary revs per mile, is to cook on Broil mode for 2 minutes on high heat, then reduce to Bake mode on medium-high heat for 3 minutes.

Cover in aluminum foil for 7 minutes, then serve your guests a taste of rotary.

Damn it, now I'm hungry. I need to go get something to eat. Not sure if I feel like lifting my car to remove the spark plugs and purge the engine. Dilemma dilemma.

That is all I do. It's never flooded.

If the temp gauge hasn't started to move I do the rev to 3k and turn it off after the revs fall. Otherwise, I just turn it off and haven't had an issue, with both the old and revised starter.

I started it, and backed it out of the garage 25 feet in order to wash it. I washed it. I started it back up to put it back. It started. I shut it off. It started the next day. Questions???
