Notamomcar: Plus if it hard floods, you can easily fix it. You don't have to tow the car to the dealer. This is assuming you have a 2004/older. Just make sure you have a battery jumper bc sometimes the process will cause the battery may get drained.

pull the fuel pump fuse, #22 if i recall. crank the car for about 5-7 seconds at a time until it doesn't really smell as bad of fuel as it did from the first try. after maybe 10 or so tries, put the fuel pump relay back in and start the car. It should fire right up. sometimes it may take longer.

This is the process we used to unflood my friend's car when it flooded. One of the RX8 specialists in here can clarify or correct me if I got the fuel pump fuse number wrong.
