Been a great car

high tammy, I think your engine is flooding, because of a bad fuel pressure sensor or a leaking injector. you will need to have it tested, one quick way to see if the fuel pressure regulator is leaking or bad , is to pull the vacuum hose off of the sensor, and see if it leaks. otherwise it will need to be pressure tested
