Default My car is flooding HELP!!!!!

Ok heres my problem
I can go out and crank my car, and it will run and idle fine, but when I cut it off and try to crank it back the car floods itself, and then will not crank. It will sound like it is going to start, but never will. The only way to get it to crank again is to take all the plugs out dry them off, and turn the engine over to blow the fuel off the cylinders. I do not know what the problem is. Recently I have went to a Fast 90/90 combo Fast fuel rails and a walbro 255 for nitrous. The nitrous is not hooked up yet though. The car has been mail tuned by texas-speed. Can anyone tell me what the problem might be.

I had a similar problem a year or so ago. It turned out I had a leaky fuel pressure regulator. To see if you have the same problem you can remove the vaccuum line off of your fuel pressure regulator while your car is running, and If any gas pours out of your vaccuum port then you know you have a tear in you regulators diaphram. This is what happened to me, and its what caused my headaches. It's easy to check out so give that a try.
