At this point I am going to let the car sit for several hours in case it is flooded.

Now...I am pretty much screwed since the car must be running in order to set the lambda tower adjustment (found a post on here about that) or, is it absolutely going to the indy?

Thanks in advance everybody!

Edit: Car is a '89 300E
I assume you were adjusting it while it was running, right? If so, then it would have started to stall either way, going CW or CCW.
When adjusting the Duty Cycle, you need to turn the adjustment very slowly until the correct measurement is reached.

Just curious, how could you reach max. adjustment?
