Sounds like it may be a fault

Sounds like it may be a faulty heat sensor that is not telling the fuel injector that the engine is warm and so to slow down the fuel supply, causing the engine to flood. It happened to a friend of mine's Sportrak. Don't know if it's the same for the Applause but I suspect it may be.
