Exclamation Starting & Flooding Problems

Ok so here's the problem.. My TII 7 has recently been a BUG to start!

All i've done to it:
1.Straight Pipe
2.Resonator
3.downpipe
4.HKS bov
5.Walbro 255 Fuel Pump

It starts after letting it sit and constantly trying over and over again

Can anyone help me please?

P.S. today the rubber piping connecting to the top mount got loose. Could that hurt anything in my engine? Maybe the turbo? I put it back and tightened it shut.


Thanks Everyone for your help

How old are your plugs, clean them then report back.

maybe your injectors are sticking/leaking?

Its a pretty common problem.

I just pulled the fuse to the fuel pump, cranked it for a couple of seconds, and put it back in and started it for a while.
Than I made a switch for the fuel pump so I didn't have to get out of the car.

Eventually I had the motor rebuilt, and upgraded to larger injectors, exc and it stopped altogether.

I was looking at some for my car the other day, it looks like it'll cost over 150 :|

I'd rather send them in to be cleaned
