Are yo turning off the car when its cold? Cause that's usually a no no.

Flooded cars can be caused by.

1. Bad/Leaking Injectors
2. Slow cranking speed/Low Battery
3. Low Compression

Or a combination of the three.

If its an injector problem then its easy, if its low compression you can usually get some more life out of it by installing a fuel cutoff switch and turning the car off that way. Its a temporary solution until you get it rebuilt.
