    usually it will be ok...

    you can always do a flood clear dry crank when you stop the car...
    foot to the floor....crank for like 10 seconds...that will clear out a bunch..then its sure to be clear the next day

    Another tip that I read in the LC1 manual is right before you turn the key off hold the throttle open and shut the engine off and keep the throttle held open. This will allow the engine to draw in and pump out fresh air through the exhaust before the engine comes to a stop.

    Don't laugh, but I stick a leaf blower in the tail pipe before doing a recalibration.

    Supposively if you kick DFCO on going down hill, you can hit the recalibration button. It only takes a few seconds. The motor is essentially dieseling at that point. Me, I take the sensor out and do a free air.
