Default Help! Getting a flooded engine.

I just replaced my injectors and fuel pump in my 00 ap1. Previous symptoms rough idle and dying at the light. Car is bone stock. I cleaned off my plugs then put them back in. Started car and it runs good at idle but as soon as I give it gas it chokes and misses. Pulled the plugs out and number 2 and 3 are both flooded as they smells before changing injectors. What could I have missed? I'm changing the plugs tomorrow. What else should I consider?

How do you know new injectors are good? Maybe move them around, see if flooding issue follows the injectors.

Swapped them nothing changed. Only code I'm getting is p0131 and I've already changed the 02 sensor. Attached is what I'm getting as readings if that helps .

what else can I consider? I give it throttle and it chokes out at first then slowly builds rpms. Tried to move it but it has very little power. I pull the vaccum hose on top of the fpr and the idle picks up tremendously.

Ok, so you can rule out injectors. Good. Moving on. Its either too much fuel or not enough spark.

Your experiment with the fpr sounds like a good place to start. Whats your fuel pressure?

I haven't been able to test fuel pressure. I can't seem to find the right fittings. Put a test tps and map sensor off a working s2k and still runs like crap. I wonder if the reman injectors are causing any of it? I have a new fpr on the way and will see if that changes anything. After this I'm going to blow it up!
