On fuel injected cars its even easier than that, put the gas pedal all the way to the floor and crank the engine. Holding the accelerator pedal at wide open throttle during start up puts the vehicle in "clear flood" mode and it switches off the injectors.

It is a lot easier to locate the fuse for the fuel pump relay than it is to locate the fuel pump relay. The cover on the fuse box will tell you which fuse it is.
It is tougher than one might think to identify which relay controls what. Alldata does a pretty good job of identifying them if you have access to that. Otherwise, you are pretty much stuck with manually activating different systems while someone puts their finger on the relays to see which one clicks.

Thank you for the information about the petal to the floor to go into flood clear mode.
Before I read your reply I pulled the fuse and it worked like a charm! I had to crank it over several times while being jump started. My battery was down. But! It worked!
Hope this helps some else. A mechanic told me they get cars towed in all the time and they are simply flooded.
