how do i stop flooding

Okay i have had my RX-7 for several weeks now and its flooded out on me twice already and I am upset. I don't press the gas pedal but it still does it. Is there some kinda fuel switch i can install to keep from doing this or can somebody tell me what i should do?

do a search for either anti-flood switch, fuel pump kill switch, or flooding in general, or (if it lets you) for posts with my username in the reply, where I describe how to install the switch. IF you cant find anything then email me hypntyz@charter.net and Ill explain it in detail.
