If you don't know the age of your vacuum lines, plugs, and/or wires, replace them. My wife's old '87 had the same problem untill I replaced all of those things. Also, this question is covered extensively in the archives and FAQ, as well as the rest of the forum. You should try searching before posting; otherwise, some oldtimer is going to simply post "SEARCH NOOB!" and leave it at that. Also, a more descriptive title is appriciated.

flooding, from poor compression or leaking injectors.

Hold the accel pedal all the way down (without pumping) and it should clear the flooded engine.
