Just started, now it won't! 850

As you already know, this is a fault of the engine design on all of the 5 cylinder cars. Oil starts pumping to the hydraulic lifters and before they all get to the proper pressure, some fool turns off the engine! LOL. Then it won't start because some of the lifters are in the wrong position and the engine will flood.
Just push the gas peddle to the floor and crank it, that tells the fuel injection system to turn off the injectors. It will start after about 30 seconds of cranking.
Now you have two cars that have the same problem! Just let it ilde for a full minute before you turn it off.
