the main reason for flooding or symptoms of hard hot starting is due to low compression/ bad coolant seals. (water leaking into rotor housings) Basically, you might need a rebuild if you seem to " flood" more than three to four times a week.

As a bonus to a fuel pump switch, it makes your car un-steal-able (if you hide the switch). IMO that's great, considering FC's are easy to steal.
