car troubles whats new

well i started my car today after i have done a bit of work. car started first go and ran beautifully turned it off and tried to start it again no go, it wouldnt start. now this is the reason i was fixing it in the first place i have replaced

1, oxygen sensor
2, the hot start sensor in back of thermostat housing
and other bits and pieces

The hot start sensor seem to be the most likely thing to cause this but now i dont dont no, all the is happening is the car is flooding and wont start let it sit for a while and no problem it will start.

Any help

i was honsetly cant remember the numbers, it was tested by a proper rotary mechanic workshop and they said the were very good. i would go get them tested again but the workshop is 5hrs drive from where i live and coz i cant start the car after i have driven it gotta let it sit it would be a huge trip. As soon as the problem is sorted out its goin there to get a mircotech so i guess the will test it again.

Leaky injectors might be the culprit. Even the connector to the wire thermosensor can be screwed up
