Sorry man but your posts are totally unclear as to what "i just got my car done i did a vert" means. We don't understand what you are asking.

Are you saying you just got a car? and it's a stock vert? Or did you just do some work to the car and now there is a problem?

Well, the obvious answer would be... The motor is still breaking in and is prone to flooding.

Did you re-use housings, ets?

Ahhhh... could be a few things

I suggest double checking to make sure you injectors are wired correctly (primary wires to primary injectors) also make sure you have the primaries and secondaries mixed up.

Like J-rat said, sounds like it still has low compression since the motor isn't broken yet. Drive the car around and try to put as many miles on it.. Remember not to rev over 3-4krpms before you hit 2,500miles... after that point slowly increase rpms..

Search for "Break in procedures" for more info.

After 2k miles, check compression.. engine should have over 100psi on all faces on both rotors.. and you shouldn't have a flooding issue after that.

Also try to make sure the car is fully warmed up before shutting it down, then can help prevent flooding on the next startup.
