OK E6k TPS Hardstart woes

My car will not start after being parked for a little while. When its warm outside it will start after a bit of work. I have noticed on my data list that my TPS indicates 100% whenever i turn the key to start the car. If i dont have my foot on the gas and turn the key it still indicates 100% when i turn the key. Is this normal? I'm really feeling these start up issues are electrical but I'm not sure where I'm going to start ripping out wires first.

Not positive with the E6K, but I believe when TPS is 100% during cranking the ECU goes into flood clear mode and turns the injectors off. It's easy enough to watch the data screen when cranking the engine to see what injector pulse width is. If it's 0, it's not going to start.

Fix the TPS and you should fix your starting issue.
