Injectors leaking by and flooding the engine possibly.

are you letting it get warmed up to normal temperature before turning it off?

That's what mine used to do. If I don't let mine warm up when I run short errands it would probably still happen. I bought a turbo timer and sometimes let it keep running for 5 minutes after I make a quick trip.

It's called hot-start. Get used to it!

no its not detonation!!
the car is flooding!
the biggest posibilitys are : leaky fuel injectors( get them cleaned), or low compression( will need rebuild soon).

get the car compression tested if your unsure of the condition of the motor!

Compression test the engine first.
This will eliminate the obvious and expensive problem...
