Problems with car starting right after I i turn it off

Problems with car starting right after I i turn it off, liek when im getting gas. It wont start, i tink its flooding but im not sure, i just put in new injector o rings and its still doing it, and the car is also dying when i go to stop some times, one of the bolts that holds on the airpump braxket( i took off airpump) was falling out so i tightened it and i heard a pop sound so i took out hte bolt and coolant came out so i put it back it and tightened it down anyone have any ideas?

WOW! Thats alot of problems...

Umm.. For the Idle problem (dying all the time), I would consider adjusting the TPS and doing the check on the BAC. Both checks are in the FSM available at www.fc3s.org
